Topic: Combat medic


  
  Combat medic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Combat Medical Technicians (CMTs) in the British Army are members of the Royal Army Medical Corps.
For many years, most medics have carried at least a sidearm (and now, frequently a rifle, carbine or submachine gun), to be used as a defensive weapon.
Medical personnel may be armed, but may only use their weapons to protect themselves or the wounded and sick in their care.

 COMBAT MEDIC PAGE
There was never any intention to award the CMB to all medical personnel who serve in a combat zone or imminent danger area, that is, a division-level medical company supporting a maneuver brigade.
The sole criteria which qualifies medical personnel for award of the CMB is to be assigned or attached to an infantry unit engaged in active ground combat.
Conceivably, this could occur if an infantry unit lost all its medics and as a temporary or permanent measure medical personnel were attached to an infantry unit, but remained assigned to a hospital or other non-infantry unit.

 The World War II Combat Medic
The Medical Service Corps traces its beginnings to the establishment of an Apothecary General during the American Revolution, and the creation of the Ambulance Corps and US Army Storekeepers in the Civil War.
Today the Medical Service Corps mirrors the Sanitary Corps, which quickly expanded to nearly 3,000 officers during World War I. The Sanitary Corps enabled the Medical Department to make available to itself a group of officers commissioned in specialties which were at the forefront of the medical technology of the day.
This led to the establishment of the Medical Administrative Corps in June 1920.

 Combat Medic - ESCMag Review
Combat Medic: Special Operations has a novel idea: You take the persona of a combat medic during a great conflict where only you and you alone stand between a wounded hero’s death sentence or evacuation.
Centering around two distinct types of gameplay is where Combat Medic really falls short; it doesn’t deliver on either, or on the promise of being an action game.
Try as I might, Combat Medic: Special Operations wasn’t my cup of tea, and may not be anyone else’s.

 Combat Medical Badge
It could be awarded to officers, warrant officers, and enlisted men of the Medical Department assigned or attached to the medical detachment of infantry regiments, infantry battalions, and elements thereof designated as infantry in tables of organization or tables of organization and equipment.
Today, medical personnel are assigned as organic personnel to infantry companies and are regarded as participants as opposed to being categorized as those providing direct medical support.
For example medical personnel serving in division-level medical companies, ground ambulance and medical clearing companies, mobile-Army surgical hospital (MASH), combat-support hospital (CSH), and field hospitals, and aeromedical evacuation units are not eligible for the CMB.

 WWII COMBAT MEDIC
The Lab’s intent is to explore the feasibility in achieving a single basic individual medical kit, that would fulfill the various needs of ALL medical personnel, mounted and/or dismounted.
It is important to note that subject medical kits are never marked (with the usual abbreviations for the relevant manufacturer, as specified in the Army Regulations) this seems to originate from the fact that all items were, at first manufactured by the Medical Research Laboratory, and later by a sole Government entity !
The individual medical kit was to remain in use throughout the whole war period, and only the pouches lacing system will later be modified by end 1943 (lace replaced by 3 press studs) – as usual, field distribution is withheld pending depletion of existing stocks.
