US ARMY COMBAT MEDIC

[CBEMT]

But yeah too many females got raped so they took our overnight passes and whatnot.

I'm kind of curious what an acceptable number would be, as opposed to "too many."

Hmm interesting thought, More then the average for the area for that time of year?

I believe that one is one too many.

USAF Veteran here

I'm was not a "Combat Medic" but I was a Squadron Medic on RAF Lakenheath while I was in the Air Force. Before I went to my first Deployment to Qatar I was the only Airman in the Squadron who went to the Army first response medical training in Germany. After my deployment finished part of my desk job was to be a first responder for any medical issues or emergency's untill the base ambulance got there. In my spare time I did all the Ambulance Tech training with St Johns Ambulance UK so I could work on a British Ambulance Service.

Once I got out of the Air Force last year I started my US EMT classes. I am looking into Paramedic schools right now after I get some work experience as a EMT-B.

I was extremely offended by his comment and being upset because he didn't get his weekend leave and implied that it was okay for rapes to occur. I agree Richard, even one, especially on a military base with people charged with the duty to protect and serve this nation, is too many.

That was pretty much the inference behind my post, just for the record. Perhaps my sarcasm did not translate.

I have to wonder, in cases like this.. If it's not just a bored site user screwing with us. I wish we could give fellow EMS folks the benefit of the doubt, and hope they couldn't be that ignorant. Like I said, I wish.

How often does THAT happen around here?

Someone in, or recently out of, the US Military please answer this one:

I am under the impression that a member of the US Military, if convicted, in a Judge Advocate General Court Marshal court, of Rape, could be subject to Execution. Is this the case, or was this the case, or am I getting my "Education" from some Hollywood movie I probably saw many years ago, if only on this subject?
