My Journey as a Combat Medic: From Desert Storm to Operation Enduring Freedom

I served in Desert Shield/Storm and later in Afghanistan as a medic.
Alot has changed in those years. A lot from the perspective as a medic.
The item that comes to mind is the field dressing. The old green field dressing
that tells you which end to apply to the wound. I honestly never found the field dressing to be a sturdy dressing and it would slip off easily. But I still packed them in my good old M5 medic bag. In reality they were just taking up space. Why, becasue I was told to. I started packing less and less of these dressings. I always kept a few in my bag though. Just in case. www.armycombatmedic.com
