Why would you write "active-duty servicemen & servicewomen" instead of just the non-gendered and less awkward "active-duty service members"? The answer, of course, is because you're an idiot.

The real lovely thing is he had a daughter born the year he retired, so she was only 12 when he got zapped. To add insult to injury; quote:Chuck deployed to Southwest Asia in support of Operation DESERT STORM during the liberation of Kuwait from a hostile Iraqi Regime. During combat operations, Chuck minimized friendly casualties by ensuring zero communication delays and by personally directing timely and accurate close air support attacks. For his combat service in Iraq, Chuck was awarded the United States Air Force Bronze Star Medal.

TK-42-1 posted:I’m shocked he took a 20mm to the dome and was still alive You’re not dead until declared dead, and that depends on county/state protocols. Some require - without lividity, rigor mortis, or other signs of obvious “not recent” death, you go to the hospital, or all measures be taken to support you, etc. until a doc declares you dead. Other times, your body just keeps working until your brain swells and you die. In any case, out in the middle of a range where you weren’t really expected to get shot at, I would think it might be a minute or two until they get someone out to check on you, take you to the hospital, and then you get declared dead.

IIRC, in some states there are "injuries incompatible with living" statues that allow laymen to declare a state of death and/or skip the hospital trip.

Kith posted:IIRC, in some states there are "injuries incompatible with living" statues that allow laymen to declare a state of death and/or skip the hospital trip. Yes. Gunshot wound to the head is not usually one of them. Also not laymen, but EMS usually. Decapitation is, for example. Blunt force trauma+cardiac arrest is sometimes another, etc. Edit: I say this having also done these various things. While I don’t claim to be an SME, I wouldn’t be shocked if hours later is just the time it took for someone to get there, call for help as he’s guppy breathing,, get an ambulance there and then get him to a hospital. Rural EMS is a gently caress. windshipper fucked around with this message at 13:48 on Oct 16, 2020 |

When I was an EMT in the last century, we were allowed to not treat/call in as dead decapitation, bodies with obvious rigor mortis, and bodies with lines of lividity. Anything else we had to treat, even a 20mm round to the head with no heartbeat or respiration.

It’s still the same, unless they’ve obviously been down for a couple hours or whatever.

That's what the black triage patch is for. If nothing else needs done, attend. Otherwise, hit the patient with a pleasant amount of morphine if possible and keep warm and cozy.

We use ribbon tape, but yes. In an MCI situation, he would be tagged as black. This doesn’t sound like an MCI.

In New York exposed brain matter is on the list for obvious death injuries. "No one dies in an ambulance" is also a pretty common refrain so I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't declared dead until at the hospital. loving sucks either way. Becoming more glad I didn't follow through on flying for the Marines every time I see a flying mishap.

I'm the idiot. Volunteered to do a fun but mostly expensive and pointless training course that culminated with doing pew-pew stuff with simunitions in a conex villiage. Got mixed up and thought we had one more conex to clear in my lane, turns out we were on the very edge and the cadre I saw with her back to me wasn't someone I had gotten the drop on. So when I thought I was a sneaky badass and shot her six times in the back from 20 feet away she responded by yelling "what the gently caress, man" and shot me twice in the dick as retaliation. Good news was the groin protector works.

In fairness I didn't even feel the hits because of the big jockstrap I was wearing over my pants. I'm pretty sure at least one of mine drilled her in the lower back under her plate carrier though. I did tell her I owed her beer. My retribution came from a different guy later one who got into my blind spot and drilled me like four times in the left shoulder and left some nice welts there.

I got to pop some cops with simunition in during an impromptu training session after MPs found a couple thousand rounds that were about to expire. One of them was married to a 1C5 I worked with, so I got an invite to the CBQ range. Never thought that setting up ambushes on police would result in a letter of appreciation.

Sounds like he beat you to the punch and compressed his own chest before you medical guys could charge him for it.

Oh yeah, and he got knocked out of all of his clothes EXCEPT his socks. I had to run a 4 lead on him to confirm death. Like, that should be a BLS skill, calling that one.

At least in CA as at the BLS level I could only call it if it was a total decapitation or rigor mortis.

I feel like I could have sold that call as a basic, but a lot of docs are going to ask for a 4-lead if it’s available just because they don’t have enough trust in the medics in their system. Depending on the system you don’t have to call for an obvious death anyway. I never called in to confirm if there was dependent lividity or decomposition, we’d just wait for pd and turn it over to them.

I prefer to call anyway, never hurts to get as much rear end-covering as possible. I only did two injuries incompatible with life calls (the other was a dude where him and his friends were out driving drunk, this guy was riding out the sunroof, which is not where you want to be when your car rear ends someone hard enough to roll over a few times). Mostly the obvious deaths were rigor/lividity and a couple days old.

Mostly the obvious deaths were rigor/lividity and a couple days old. Nothing wrong with that. I think I stopped calling after a resident asked me to perform cpr on a doa with rigidity in front of family, so the trust issue goes both ways. I never had an injuries incompatible call, though, and i’m not sure how I would have handled that. I worked exactly one nye in my career, and they couldn’t have paid me enough to work another one.

I've been out for almost a decade and don't miss it any more, but I still wouldn't trade that time for anything. I had some bad days, but the good ones made up for it. The time off was great. I used to accrue PTO on overtime as well as pay, and I'd usually end up taking off around 6 weeks a year. Plus 12 days of sick time a year, and they never asked questions when you called in.
