I've never been fond of being on concrete.

Knee pads, carpet sample, closed cell foam
camping pad. Broken down cardboard boxes.
All good ideas.

Correct. I came from a JW family upbringing. Not only do they not
serve militarily in any form of armed conflict, they don't even vote
and are politically neutral. When the draft was still used in the
U.S., they did allow their members to be drafted provided they were
specifically ordered for medical corps, otherwise they they took a CO

As well as themselves. I became well aquainted with a number of
medics in RVN and most all of them were well armed.

Ideally, Medics (either Civilian or in an organized military) wouldn't
need to be armed, because no civilized person or soldier following any
flavor of the UCMJ would be shooting at them - the red cross on their
uniform or tin pot helmet is supposed to mean 'Non-Combatant' on both
sides.

However, there are a lot of mercenaries, terrorists, criminals and
just plain bug-nuts crazies out there who don't believe in any
exceptions. Everyone who isn't on their side is automatically a
target.

For those cases, I have no problems with the Medics being armed if
they choose to be. And out of THEIR adherence to the Geneva
Conventions they won't start shooting at you if you aren't shooting
at them first - because if they end up dead they are of no use to
their patients. Deal?

You do better to take that deal, because once they drop you and remove
the threat, they'll probably do something insane themselves - like
try to get to you, treat you to keep you alive, and haul you off to
the hospital with the rest of the load. Figure _that_ one out.

-- Bruce --

You know, a similar moment happend on the show "Combat Hospital". The woman
medics were treating civillians, and someone came in, firing. One of the
medics, female, drew and fired. As soon as they kicked the pistol away, they
went into medic mode. It was interesting to watch.

I guess they don't practice "security rounds".

Anyone who works with electricity and claims he has never been shocked
is a liar. All I'll ever claim is that I haven't been shocked to death.
I've worked high voltage power making splices and connections from the
underground grid to pad mounted transformers and you do not play around
with that stuff. If you feel your hair stand on end, you back away from
whatever you're working on being careful not to touch anything. ^_^

It wasn't done on purpose. I was at her house when her cousins barged
in and begged us to play baseball with them. I told them that I had no
control over the ball when I hit it, and she was pitching. Three
pitches, and three line drives that hit the pitcher.

At least they never asked us to play baseball with them again.
