Well said, [@TomeBinder]. Things always work best when we pull together, especially in the case of survival RPs where character death is a real possibility.

[@Rare] if you have any questions about keeping your character alive, or the best way he can help with whatever new and horrible crisis befalls the squad (I'm Combat Lifesaver qualified, which isn't as in-depth as a medic but is a good start), feel free to ask me. I'd be happy to help you out. [@HeySeuss] is also an outstanding resource. The guy has an impressive wealth of knowledge about everything from weapons and the environment they're in to the tactics they're using to survive and counter the threat of the Viet Cong.

Hit up either one of us. I'd also suggest googling "Combat Lifesaver". There are a lot of sources out there that can tell you exactly how your character would implement his skills, and what he would do to stabilize and care for a wounded comrade, if you don't want to ask me.
