I agree with everyone else. This is how it should be reported. My brother in law leaves next month to go to Afganistan with his dust off unit. I have been an EMT for 12 years and I will never see or do the things these guys do in one day even the ground medics. I could not ever show enough appreciation and gratitude that I have for these ladies and gentlemen. I wish all those out there the best of luck and I hope they return home safely.

@andrademeza it use to be back in my days as a 91b20y1 before i volunteered for selection and assessment, you had to pass the flight physical, and request flight medic training which at that time was at fort rucker, al. this was during the 80's. i have no idea what you have to do in this day and age.
if you are planning on flight medic, you had better study up on your acls protocols and ekg's. that use to be the dinger on some students.

DUSTOFF - Dedicated Untiring Support To Our Friendly Forces
This is what journalism should really be all about, telling the story, not kissing neocon ass or US bashing, depending on the political climate of the season
