hooahmedic reporting

Post by hooahmedic »

Hello everyone!
Not a Ranger but a veteran of the 82nd. 1/505 PIR ('89-'93)
Desert Shield and Storm.
Currently, still serving part-time. Ambulance section leader for tank unit in Texas. I hate being in a leg unit but no choice, right now.

Wear another uniform full time in the civilian world and ride an ambulance one day a week.

Rangers, I do appreciate your service. Thank you.
I'm honored to be in your house.

Does that make you a para-medic?

Let's see if memory is still working like it should, we were on the ground around the 16th of August - I believe. The 325 AIR was there on the 12th, I think, and the 505 followed on like four days later. I was definately on the ground by 1 September.
Leather,
With you being on the ground about the same time, would that made you part of Anglico? We had a bunch of those hard chargers with us and it was real comforting to know those guys were close by and what they could do for us Speed Bumps.

Sir,what's the quesiton.

Ranger Neves,
Unfortunately, I'm not a para-medic. I was a grunt with the 505. I came back in the Guard in '98 as a medic. On the outside I am an EMT- Intermediate. Wish my body would hold up to going back on duty as an Airborne Medic, but it's not too be.

hooahmedic-

Welcome to the board. I had a couple buddies in 82nd during that time period...slim chance that you would know either of them: Terry Parsons (from Tx) and ? Griffis (from Up-State NY).

Ranger EP,
Your two buds do not sound famaliar. Heck, the only Parsons I know was a cop in Athens and he didn't fit the physical profile of a paratrooper. :shock:

LN,
Understand. PM sent in response.
