Do you apologize to the wounded even though you didn't cause their pain? Because Canadian.

Seriously though, are MedTechs required to keep up the same physical and combat training as the 'foot soldiers' (for lack of a better term)?

Thanks for the explanation, and finding the word 'infantry' I was looking for (coffee hadn't kicked in).

From the inside, do you feel that Canada's military has its own leadership with its own agenda, or does it act mostly as America's little-brother-in-tow? This is intended as a serious question. From an American's point of view, Canada is always there to support our efforts, regardless of unpopular they are. But I haven't seen any evidence of reciprocity.

Lastly, what are your goals after the military? Do you see yourself in a large hospital facility, working with wounded soldiers, private practice?

Thanks for the replies and the information. And although I'm unlikely to call upon your skills, thank you for giving back to those who have and will. Best of luck.
