Episode 23 - The Humble Medic

We welcome another Medic to the podcast this week, as US Army Sergeant First Class Brandon Ruedi joins us to discuss his time serving as the Company Medic for B/1-64 at COP Sperwan Ghar in 2012. SFC Ruedi talks to us about the unique circumstances of such a large Aid Station on a Combat Outpost, the role of medics as morale officers, and the difficulty in losing his first patient in combat.
