    hackles and toories

    Good advise from Danjanou above. Please don't just pick up a cool looking badge and place it on your head dress! In the highland tradtion. like the military, that badge denotes affiliation and not just decoration.

    hackles and toories

    Neither regiment I belonged to wore the Hackle with the Glen. However, with a google search I confermend that some do. The Hackle is affixed to both the glen and balmoral the same way. At the base of the hackle is a wire frame. This is placed in proper positing between the cap badge and the...

    If a medic is authorized to use opiates he/she will also be trained to get IV access. If you have the med as an IV dose why would you want to give it as a lollypop? In the snake eater world where evac chains may be protracted then a medic attached to the unit or a combat arms pers who is...

    Tactical combat casualty care ( TCCC )

    The reason for the change has several facets. The first of which is that although it is easy to teach the skill set it is not easy to get the time to maintain the set. Second, allot of recent studies have shown that people fixate on the IV and forget the ABCs. Also there is a problem with over...
