Welcome I am new to Kansas aswell.

Eagle C.I.R.A.S with level 4 plates and soft armor

I need to purchase several thousand dollars worth of med stuff anyone know anyone that can get me a bulk price? I need BVMS AEDS ETC

R.I.P my brother and fellow freedom fighter you shall be remembered.

News flash, as I have been a part of our hiring for many many years, and we also correspond and work closely with our local LEO's..I can promise you many agencies, especially LEO agencies… are absolutely hip to what you post and how you present yourself in internet land. EMS is a small world, and I know of several would be hires we have passed over after review of what they said and the pics they posted on their face book pages, on internet sites, and such.

Fair? No. Reality? Definitely.

As for an "in" to being a swat medic? Not to be harsh, but grow up, focus in the first 5-10 years on becoming an oustanding medic.

In addition, work HARD on your physical fitness, most LEO circles recommend a cross-fit type program for "functional fitness". I would strongly recommend becoming a reserve deputy/officer in the process. Finially, becoming a part of the "warrior" culture through shooting and martial arts will help too. This is a years long process. I speak from knowing all the members on our TAC-MED team, as well as many LEOs. And trust me, we all can sniff out badge bunnies and B.S. from a mile away. Get serious about your career first, and then worry about the TEMS team.

On the plus side, I know of three very fit females on our team over the years who were very successful in TEMS, so it is absolutely achievable by a female. And trust me, not one of them exhibited an ounce of groupie behavior.

Good stuff here.

I started as an EMT out of highschool then became a medic, Long story short I became a LEO and over the years merged the two together. Being fit is good being fit of mind is imperative, Seeing someone shot be it the suspect or a fellow team member or an innocent person even possibly a child CAN NOT INTERFERE WITH YOUR JOB PERIOD. You must be able to treat a man who has just slaughtered people. Your a medic not a jury.

Good to hear from you bro, Did a few stints over there.

Did some work for TC generally good group and company.

I just had another question I wanted to piggy back on. Im currently a FMF corpsman, just came back from afghanistan and served w/ marines in a combat zone, I took fire and had members in my convoy blown up numerous times. I was also a 911 emt for about 3 years and a paramedic for 2. I know triple canopy is one of the big boys of the contract world are there lesser services that have great pay. Im just looking for some points of contact or if someone can just shine some light on this for me. I have another 2 years, im currently in japan but ill be done w/ my service soon and just want to try and line something up.

Thanks

The "biz" is shrinking so dont put all your eggs in one basket. PM me for some contact info.

whats the difference between a hockey player and a hippy chick?

hockey players take a shower after three periods

RIP. wish I had a chance to laugh with him once more.

With current NR just pay the fee to the state. No special DL. As far as good pay like everywhere you have areas that pay good and more that don't. If not already a Paramedic harder to find a good paying job.

big cities pay well, and they are quite picky.

I generally work LEO now, but when I was doing tac-med I carried either a ar-15/m-4 variation or mp-5 my sidearm Ive always preferred to carry my SA xd .40

I'm quite skilled with a rem .700 308 taken a few sniper courses "dreadful 10 hour stalks" those of you who know, know what im talking about!

Pretty the world is evolving were tattoos "pg" are acceptable im a LEO and recently got tattoos on both of my forearms.

lol wut hai richard

my car

i got tased accidently by a rookie cop.

I don't know what type of system you operate in but a subject that is always interesting is tactical medicine. School shooting situations or other similar operations. The local police agency can be involved as well.

looks like I got somthing sorta right

What if you ARE the supervisor?

If it was me, I'd be calling the local sheriff's department for a breathalyzer test. Settle it once and for all.

For me it would depend on the person if its a chronic thing then i would call the sherrif if it was a one time deal and a friend i make take the first couple of hours to see really how bad it was.

But im dont really know im new to this thing called "life"
