I have to go again in october for a nother week of training. learned some new medical procedures and did a lot of field work. and it was hot!!!!!!!! and my sunburn didnt help , tuesday my shoulders were bleeding from the straps on my pack rubbing agenst them and rubbing the dead sundurn skin off. I put thick bandages on my shulders to cushon the straps but it still hurt. we did 113 air evacks all together between 4 birds, thats got to be some kind of record! The purpos of the training was a simulated mass evac. after a durty bomb det. It all went well, we had 6 guys go down from the heat and had to treat them. one of the people playing a victom fell while getting into place and we had to do a real evac on her, just a sprained wrist. but we flew her to the hospital anyway. we had a field hosp. set up in a field but every once in a while we would take one to the local hosp. they were in on it and it gave them some training too. had one guy vomit while we were winching him up into the bird and the down wash from the blades blew it every wair. i was able to get a few pitures i will poast later i have to dig my camera out of my pack and im dying for some real food! i do not know where Missy is. Mrs Parker had a project for the girls to do but i dont know what it was. up Jeromy just told me the girls are all at a camp for special needs kids helping out there.

My cookie is all crumbled. My hole body hurts, the sunburn is about healed up. I got lucky when my co saw my shoulders he stuck me in the helicopter for most of it. we just got back from clean up. everything is put away and training is over for now, Im going to sleep till monday. David fell asleep talking to his wife and Missy took the phone and spoke with her for a bit, he is out for the count. He spent most of the time on the ground carring litters and running around he is bushed. Jeromy was all over ,half the time on a helicopter and half in the field. They did some good jobs on the wounded it looked so real. in this photo it is all fake!

Here is Jeromy standing next to one of the med helos. he is wairing a med. vest.

Im on the right and my partner Sam is on the left we were leaning over the wounded to shield them from the down wash from the helicopter that was coming in,

Here is at the field hosp. treating simulated wounded, that fake blood they used looked so real.
