Amazing Clyde,thanks from a soon ready paramedic.

I have worked shoulder to shoulder with some paramedics, and found them to be just as knowledgable and more professional than some MD's.

Retired police officer here. Does that count?
22.5 years, disabled with 4th broken back, 13 major injuries and much more, like
severe p.t.s.d and depression.
Lt. Commander SWAT, detective, and so on.
Later retired as engineer with G.M. 7 years.
Did C.P.R. 3 times and saved 'em.
But they died the next day or so. Lack of air = brain damage.

Hi guys:

I was a nationally registered paramedic and EMT for almost 12 years before I got hurt.

I have a lot of disaster experience (I live in Florida), and am looking forward to exchanging ideas here.
