but the Army medics and Navy/Marine corpsmen I encountered in Vietnam were heroes, to a man and very well trained for a future in emergency medicine.
One of my uncles was an Army medic in Vietnam. I can only imagine the things he saw and dealt with on a daily basis. He had a lot of stories and I wish he was still around to tell them. I remember him telling me a story about running over a Vietnamese soldier that was shooting at him with a truck, and he followed it up with a "frick that guy".
