    Questions for Emt, rookies and seasoned professionals and everyone in between.

    No Daniel, there are men and women in the world who have completed back to back combat tours for the past 15 years: yet they don't spend every moment they can reminding people they are/have been in the military, nor broadcasting it to every person they can via every medium. Perhaps if you had...

    PROSPECTIVE FLORIDA PARAMEDIC CHANGES

    Don't mean to hijack your question. But to understand what you're saying, the pass rate for NREMT P testing in Florida is <40%? As in, less than 40% of people in Florida that take the NREMTP are passing?

    Questions for Emt, rookies and seasoned professionals and everyone in between.

    On the one hand everything you type is about your military experience and the other is you're too stupid to know any better? Two things should have been ingrained into you- humility and professionalism. I would suggest you try engaging those to maintain some form of standards if you are now a...

    EMS and Fire wearing body armor / bullet resistant vests/ ballistic vests.

    I didn't suggest the wearing of body armor- I just suggested that having a control point does not result in safety for personnel stationed there. I don't advocate having kneejerk reactions to every possible scenario- but I certainly am all about having plans in place to avoid being caught out.

    EMS and Fire wearing body armor / bullet resistant vests/ ballistic vests.

    Not necessarily the case. With incidents becoming more frequent it is only a matter of time before secondary and tertiary devices come into play. It is not hard to predict the likely location of control points... 1- Detonation of a device in a public area/begin active shooter sequence in...

    EMS and Fire wearing body armor / bullet resistant vests/ ballistic vests.

    I think it is situation dependant- if a department is saying all personnel should be wearing body armor as a mandatory precaution in daily duties (in the same fashion LEO's wear it during their shifts)- then I think it should be covert body armor used...there's no need to confuse the public as...

    Vegan EMS boots

    If theyre $200 you wouldnt be replacing them anytime soon, for example my snakeskin boots I wear to work have lasted for ages. My bear hide serves as a great warmer upper for the winter months too!
