Does anyone here have the skinny on the US Air Force's Aerospace Medical Service? It appears like a jack-of-all- trades/ master of none career field. What type of certifications, if any, do you receive that translate over to the civilian world? I was looking into Aeromedical Evacuation, but it...

So I've been wondering what are everyone's thoughts are regarding the VFW? When I returned home from Iraq in June 2005, my squad was held in a room back on base, and told we could not leave until we completed enrollment forms for both the Veterans Administration and the Veterans of Foreign...

Does NREMT sell any flash cards for their various exams, 1st Responder, EMT-B, and EMT-P ??? I'm looking for hard copy flash cards and not virtual flash cards. Thanks in advance.
