    A Medic in OIF III - His Video

    By desertnurse  |  Posted November 7, 2008  |  Augusta, Georgia
     
    I was a medic for a mechanized infantry company during OIF III. The platoon I was attached to was pulled from our company and became 3ID's Quick Reaction Force (QRF) for a small amount of time and then we went back to our company. We patrolled western Baghdad (mounted and on foot) the remainder of our year there. My platoon pulled over 250 combat patrols of the area. Here are some of the things we witnessed. The Men pictured in this video are some of my closet friends - and become your family. Pictures of my family can be seen here: http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-116444 (Music: Beastie Boys - The Mix Up) see the following link for more in this article: http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-144204
