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.
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...

I do not hate Quick Clot it is a tool. A tool that was still being evaluated and was not approved for use. Yes it was I that posted the cautionary because untrained people were grabbing it of the shelf thinking that they coulduse the product.

Sorry to add my two cents but,
I have a small group of people within my unit and because of this we are a close nit society.
Yes I am cloister than my regular force counterparts but I do not believe that this undermines my ability to lead or command.
Those within my comand staff are mature...
You and I are not in disagreement there JANES. I am not talking about an Amb in Saskatoon, nor BC nor any where else in Canada.
I have done a fair bit of third world med both pre and in hospital. From my experience pre-hospital or even in hospital oral analgesic in a trauma situation is not one...
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...
Yes,
It is true that fentanyl can be admiistered by lolypop or any other oral means but has anyone here thought about what happens when there is an adverse reaction to such meds?
If you are going to have any opioid analgesic adminisetered then please have an IV access avaiable if there is an...
Here is a link that have been modified in the last year. They have changed from Vioxx to Celebrex as well as Cipro to Gati.

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...

It was one of the hardest transitions for me personally. Not only did I commission but transferred from the Combat arms (Combat Engineer) to CFMS (Nur).

Janes,
Once again you are making allot of grand statements. Is there any research that backs up some of your claims or is this all "personal Experience".
I also notice that despite repeated request you have not filled out your profile.
There are two Reserve medical units in BC
11 Fd Amb in Victoria
and
12 Fd Amb in Vancouver.
Your best bet is to get in touch with your closest one and talk to their recruiting NCO. I have known the one for 12 Fd Amb for several years and is quite knowledgeable. He is a medic with BC amb as...
