I find it positively fascinating that the kid wants to be an EMT and people are suggesting setting his sights on being a PJ. PJs are tier 2 (tier 1 if 24th STS). Who is going to go through that hell with the plan to get out and be an EMT? It is like someone saying they want to be a paralegal and the suggestion is to go to Stanford or Yale law school to get there.
was thinking the same thing
son of a friend of mine was a PJ in Iraq and Afghanistan and he went through some really intense training and combat.
the medical part of his job was the easy part. the toughest was being inserted for a downed helicopter, miles deep in to enemy held territories
