Military Physician Assistants.

If your interested in being a Med Tech, there is the support specialty of Special Operation Med Tech (SOMT). They are not SF shooters, but highly trained medics who accompany the shooters everywhere. Something to also look at.

Got 24K games in. Still enjoy it. Rocking the 7/54 ranked battles.

Med Techs are required to do clear and concise patient notes. Perhaps time studying English would be better spent.

Not speaking theoretically, hypoglycemia is an emergent symptom, quickly treated by giving someone glucose and fluids. The cause of the hypoglycemia is usually a larger condition which may or may not be easily addressed.

Incorrect; any clinician (doctor, physician assistant or nurse practitioner) can change medical limitation AFTER re-evaluation. The remainder of your points are correct.

Remember how it was said, the CAF's public support was widespread, but only an inch deep. Due to this issue, our support has dried up.

To amplify what was said before, you need to discuss the specifics with your MO, and if you do not like the answer you may request a meeting with the Base/Brigade Surgeon who is in charge of the MO. Request both direct to the MO AND your Chain of Command. You have a couple steps to go through...

The CO, MO and to a lesser extent, your RSM (or equivalent) must know, because they are the ones who sign the paperwork and provide the justification and plan. You need to ask your MO and your CoC some questions? And no, the unit I am in, we send people there so they can take a break from the...

Not knowing, nor do I care to know, what surgery you are to have, I would speculate that due to the extended period you are requiring for time off and for rehab, it sounds like your MO determined that you will not be able to return to full duties for quite an extended period.  (Speculating...

Terrible news, RIP Tim.

You are incorrect in your assumption. There are clearly defined front lines in that region. Complete and utter bull crap.

+1. My initial response to reading the article was "BULLSHIT". Followed by the discussion point of, "Show me the numbers". If the comparison (as it is suggested in the article) is solely based on volunteer, anonymous and completely separate questionnaires I would be quick to dispute the findings.

Don't limit yourself to the past. The Army will be looking for tasks to play in the new theater as it matures. And this will be especially true if the Conservative renew thier majority in the fall.

IMHO: If this mission gets extended, you will likely see a larger SF task force, and additional Regular Forces support in the form of medical and logistical units being pushed in to form a more substantial logistics chain home. It also would not surprise me if select small groups of Cbt arms...

Did you mean, "every CAF service except the Army is operational"? :nod:

http://nypost.com/2015/02/07/niger-reports-109-boko-haram-fighters-killed-in-attacks/ NIAMEY, Niger — A total of 109 Boko Haram fighters were killed by soldiers responding to attacks on two towns in Niger near the border with Nigeria on Friday, Niger’s defense minister said. In a statement...

There is no physical requirement to be an operator in CANSOFCOM, except for a thinking brain and a courageous heart. That CSOR det featured on CTV W5 seemed tall because Mercedes Stevenson is not.

I am unsure if this study took that info into account. But with other types of testing, a positive result prompts a review of the medical file and an interview of the offender with the MO to determine if there was an "alternate cause" to the positive result.
