Day 17: Cool-headed medic thrown into trial by fire


This is a great story about how far soldiers will go to be the best at what they do. Our soldiers go through more than we could ever imagine. This is just one example of one woman's composure as she is faced with keeping a soldier alive while in the air.
Here is a blurb, go to the link to view the whole story:
As the crew chief pushed the helicopter door open, debris filled the cabin and the familiar outline of soldiers carrying the wounded appeared from seemingly nowhere in the dust. With a haste that comes only in battle, the wounded soldier was thrust onto the cabin floor between the flight medics.
Though Cpl. Amanda Mosher was new to flying, she was no rookie at medicine, having served a previous tour as a medic in Afghanistan.
