Pararescuemen are among the most highly trained emergency trauma specialists in the U.S. military. They must maintain an Emergency Medical Technician - Paramedic qualification throughout their careers. With this medical and rescue expertise, along with their deployment capabilities, PJs are able to perform life-saving missions in the world's most remote areas. ----

Paramedic Course, Kirtland AFB, N.M. -- This 22-week course teaches how to manage trauma patients prior to evacuation and provide emergency medical treatment. Upon graduation, an EMT-Paramedic certification is awarded through the National Registry.
I believe, they train in that area as well at the beginning (Lackland). Don't know for any other branch, though. Just the only one I knew off the top of my head.The one I'm referring to is out of San Antonio, and I don't think there are any AF guys (likely because they already use the school in NM)
