What would I have to do to become a combat medic? Since ive been born i have loved the idea of helping someone when in greatest need. I have studied First aid and so on. I was wondering what I needed to do to join when im old enough. No, I dont want to be a hero but i love helping ppl. This is what got me into MASH. They give Scenarios at the cadets for everything.Would the army get me into medical school?
