[sarahlovespeople]

What song is this. And HOO-AH for the military!!

[bemjbful]

Im going to be a hospital corpsman. I find this an inspiration. Thank you.

[DATxLATINxKID]

Im going into the navy as a Hospital corpsman. very excited to help people out.

[MrStephendloyd]

Thank you to all who did there job, there duty, and came home.

[wkat950]

It has always been an issue with no provision of reciprocity or follow-on updated training to combat medics and corpsmen. When the MAST helos began in the Seventies there were people dying because the (then) 91b's couldn't perform beyond the level of a basic EMT.

[therealdeal989]

to all the wannabe medics. Get your college while your in cause you will not practice the same level of medicine when you leave service. trust me, I just left and civilain world does not respect our training at all.

[Armyof92]

@therealdeal989 Sorry bro! people arent the same anymore! but i respect all military! :P All you guys have atleast me behind ya!

[cbertsbnsf68]

@Armyof92 And me! my family, friends and a whole lot of us back here are right here waiting for you guys to come home safe. I know what it's like being there, and true, things and people back here aren't the same. But you need to know there are a whole bunch of us who didn't change a damn bit in regard to our respect and admiration for you guys....Be safe, God bless and be with you all.

[TheCelticmaori]

@therealdeal989 i understand where ur coming from, im a male nurse joining the british QARANC. on my course there were combat medics who could served in afghan/iraq who have seen more trauma, did more hands on skills then surgeons themselves yet they found themselves un-qualified! some were even jobless. unfair

[cominion]

@therealdeal989 its not that they dont respect it, its not credited, you get your national registry emt-BASIC throught AIT and advanced trauma and IV training, so in the civilian world, you can not function as you would with armed forces. basically all you can use when you get out is the emt-b training. im looking into the army combat medic right now

[cominion]

i am currently a career+volunteer emt/firefighter with 5 yrs, 2 yrs as a emt in maryland, and know MANY military medics, mainly air force and army, many of which volunteer on the ambulance as a national registry emt-b which they got from their military training. big difference from not respecting and not recognising

[zheunguin]

@therealdeal989 the government doesnt respect military service(wo)men until it's there own blood on the field. god bless all military and post-military personal!!

[pittpens10562]

I'm hoping to be a medic as well whenever I am of the age. But what's it really like taking care of wounded men is it hard?

[dodgerlives]

@pittpens10562 No, it's really easy...

[kristengermano]

i leave june 13th to become a soldier in the greatest army on earth and train to be a 68W! HOOAAH!

[CombatMedicBuddy]

@kristengermano nice I second that. Im leaving in about a year, cause I want to get some EMT classes at my college first, before I enlist in the Army National Guard as a 68W. Then I'm gonna go in and try to use my skills to save as many as many people as possible. The combat medic is a really noble MOS in the military, I wish you luck kristen ;).

[kristengermano]

@CombatMedicBuddy more power to you! welcome to the team :)

[ithpally]

you guys are amazing. thanks for everything you do!

[jalen77232]

this is what i want to do / civil paramedic

[lydiahunter96]

i wanna be a combat medic and im a girl:L

[TheFadedFate]

What's the music?

[Mintberrycrunch00]

Amazing

[butchsgirl1]

I forced myself to watch this so I'd have a better understanding of a hero I've just started writing to -- a combat medic. Difficult to watch? Yes, but he's living it. Blessings to all medics and troops wherever you are.

[jodato0626]

Shipping in July to be a 68W HOOAH!!

[EliAndHisCamera]

@jodato0626 Bro, that's awesome!! God bless you! And God bless all the soldiers defending our freedom's. I hope to be a 68W when I join. Any advice?

[ExtremeX2productions]

@jodato0626 HOOAH!

[Blexxor12]

@jodato0626 Thank you for what you are doing for us. I am hoping to be a Combat medic as well, when I reach 20, beecause at 18 I am going to start doing physical training for two years, or until I can do the PT before I even join for the automatic rank you can recieve.

[delewill78]

seriously, ive learned more in my unit than what i learned in ait.. being a 68W is awesome!!

[aaronblackburn93]

Ship out June of 2012 for the 68W, cant wait HOOAH

[CJC0211]

[xXPoetixSoulXx]

[3cheers4Ger]

@xXPoetixSoulXx: I wanna be a Combat Medic too!! I'm a girl

[Blakeboon]

@3cheers4Ger Yeah so? Being female doesn't mean a thing as long as you can do your job hooah.

[3cheers4Ger]

@Blakeboon Yeah! Thank you. I feel like you're the only one who agrees with me on that.

[Blakeboon]

@3cheers4Ger I don't have a problem with advercity in the military, as long as everybody can do their job and meet the same physical requirements.

[jhenderson91]

@Blakeboon too bad most of them cant hooooooah

that's why they're better off staying in the BAS and not really on the wire

[Blakeboon]

@jhenderson91 but those that can, scary as hell.

[jhenderson91]

@Blakeboon VERY true haha

[xXPoetixSoulXx]

@3cheers4Ger you will prolly end up in a TMC...im in afghanistan right now

[Sgtmayfield]

awsome!

[17SPFD]

Is a 68W Health Care Specialist essentially a Combat Medic?

[wakeoforion999]

@17SPFD yes, all types of medics were collapsed into one field, the 68w.

[3cheers4Ger]

@wakeoforion999: 68W is my dream

[thefinalgamer]

good song, and a good tribute.
