Juba on TV last night

[Sniper]

You can call me 'dangerous' but thanks all the same... mate just a wind up you know that, while some of your stories tend to get carried away, Id just like to say that sniper is the sorta guy that would help out a biker anyway he could..

Thanks mate. But its like a fucken gang bang, Im expected to bite.

Ask ya flat mate this then Snip... when carring a wounded or dead body out of the battle field, what is the main difference between streachering them???
Ill give you a hint 'head and toes'

BTW, I think the two medics wont agree.

I think you are right about the medics not agreeing. But the bodies Ive seen and carried were stretchered or airlifted. Mind you, a couple of them were civvies in a car accident.

Funny that...
Now answer the question

[Sniper]

He asked why should there be a difference?

EDIT: Unless you are talking about having a wounded legs elevate above the heart??- Sniper

[Rashika]

And hopefully you can explain to me why medics fight on the frontline

umm they dont, ever... unless forced uinto a situation where they have to
They help the injured usually at a further back point, but dont 'fight' on the front line. Some of what you say i agree with, some not...but my experience isn't huge, I am going by what I was taught and shown by much more experienced personnelle. And yes it does take 4 people to stretcher a person be they dead or alive...have you ever tried to carry a body with a rifle, and all ya gear, under barbed wire, thru streams and under bombardment, especially if they are some 6ft 4 bloke with all their gear.

He asked why should there be a difference?

its one of the first things i learned and has stuck by me thru the years...it makes it easy for the docs/nurses to know straight away from a long distance if they have a person to save or bury

Ive run with a body in full FSMO, rifle and a water container for 5 clicks. Not under bombardment or fire but still not my idea of a good afternoon, but I know what you mean. I do appreciate what you say and the fact that you know where Im coming from.

I'll pass that on thanks. So what is it about bringing a body back thats different to bringing injured back?

[Ixion]

,,
I actually have no idea why Im arguing with people about shit like this, its a fucken personal opinion. One thing Ive noticed though is by now a thread thats resorted to this level of discussion usually gets locked, PD'ed or told to tone it down.

We're watching it. It's close, but you're all big boys and girls.

[Joni]

It's close, but you're all big boys and girls.

Hmm not sure if I agree with you Ixion - however will pop you a pm.

Geeeeeeez that put a stop to our fun.

[dangerous]

Geeeeeeez that put a stop to our fun.

No stop as far as I can see...

OK Snip, ya havent answered the question, so ya obviously dont have a flatmate thats a x Medic, and you obviously never did basic training... now even I know that if a body is a dead burger then its carried in feet 1st... if its a tad munted but breathing then its carried in head 1st
Maybe you can explain why that is... NA, didnt think so

The newboy streacher carrier allways goes second/behind so being the newby and inexperienced if he drops the streacher = dead guy lands on head munted live guy lands on feet, as tested on myth busters. There you go Sniper answered for you so you can spend more time at the range sharpening up those skills.

[Rashika]

and also so the poor fkers cant see what sort shit you about to carry them thru as well... they wont wriggle around as much then either
