Former Corpsman here. Just got out a few months ago. Anyone have

nobody cares welfare faggot

>>33054172

I wish I could qualify for welfare. Sadly, I'm white, able-bodied, and not dumb enough to have kids I can't support.

Guess I'll just have to work for a living

How do I into fixing stab wounds? Had an embarrassing moment when I fell onto a branch and passed out but forgot to ask the first responder what he was doing on account of me fainting.

Since you were in the navy and a corpsman, what is the best way to give first aid in an anal year down to lack of proper water based lubricant?

Greenside or Blueside? Was it worth it? What do you think of doing reserve corpsman?

I was a USMC pog lol jsut got out

How deep was the stab wound and where was it located?

One of the most important things to learn, especially in the case of deep wounds, is how to effectively pack them with gauze. I'm not talking about just stuffing it with gauze, I mean the methodical packing that will both absorb blood and aid the clotting process.

I'm afraid I don't understand your wording, friend.

Don't forget to change your socks and drink water.

I was with CLR-2 for a couple of months before they became CLR-27, so my Greenside time was limited. I went to Bahrain for a year after that, then to a helo squadron that deployed on carriers.

To answer your question, Blueside, mostly.

>>33054205
Not OP but you should just try to keep it still and get help to the hospital. Rolled gauze surrounding the object taped together (not on the object) should do.

You spell like a crayon eater

My favorite flavor of crayon is red

Was it worth it? I'm intending to go into a medical field anyway and figure it might be nice to be a reserve corpsman. Also, was it worth?

>>33054317

I loved it, but I knew that going out on top (E-5 in five years) was the way to go. Corpsmen don't exactly promote quickly, and a lot of them tend to stagnate around the E-4 mark.

I got some civilian certs while I was still in, so I'm using them now while going to school and earning extra cash to throw in with the GI Bill money.

Be warned, though. You WILL meet some real fucking knuckleheads out there, not to mention people who may actually have debilitating mental disorders.

A guy I attended "C" school with actually got medically separated for being, no shit, severely autistic. He slipped through the cracks for four years until someone caught on

What percentage of your peers was satisfied with their lives? What's the quality of life like? When I was in, like only 10% of my entire unit actually didn't hate their life.

>>33054406

While I was in the helo unit, I could say that about 70% of my peers was satisfied with their lives. In a sea duty squadron, hard work DOES get noticed, but if you're a shitbag in your off-time, that will impact you as well.

We had a few hiccups here and there (domestic violence, suicide, uncontrolled alcoholism, etc) but we fared well.

I busted my ass for the squadron, too. I'd get calls at 2 AM about someone's medical concerns and I'd help them out as best as I could. We were supposed to have two Corpsmen, but one retired and the guy who was SUPPOSED to help me out ended up getting discharged for something, so it was just me helping 300 people out for about three years.

Do you get treated like shit like Lance Coolies usually do? Or is it more chill and stuff?

Sorry for so many questions bro
