Today I give my list of demands to the US Army...

So I get a phone call last night. Even though I'm on my first three day break, I have togo in to work today. Well, here's why. Colonel Fried, he's the guy in charge of all the medical stuff in not just in Kuwait, but the whole middle east. Well, as it turns outit is today that the Army needs a list if medical equipment that we need. They agreed to purchase $150k worth of medical supplies after the death of the chaplain... hey, you don't know that story yet, do you, well another day then.
So anyways I needo to get a wish list together and my chief has kinda thrown that responsibility in my lap. But I love it. Right now I am keeping what few supplies we have in the "girls" bunk room. See, I guess the US army has a thing against men and women sleeping in the same room and using the same washrooms...which isn't ALL that bad. But, after a day of drinking 6 liters of water you wake up alot and run to the bathroom, sometimes 4 times a night. But, our bathroom is down the hall, across the bay floor into the other side of the building. Its a long walk ok? Just trust me.
So today the plan is to head to the base and get my list together. I will also be helping teach IV therepy to some soldiers who learn it for emergency survival in war time situation, saving your own I suppose. I hlped a couple days agao and it was the funnies bloodbath I've seen. They are pretty good at sticking each other, but once they do, they forget to occlude the vein so lood goes spurting out while they get tubing ready. Our bay floor looked more like a surgeons lair. On the floor, tale, each other... its no scene for the squeemish. Every once in awhile we get someone passing out. No harm no foul. Its really cool eing able to work with the slodiers, it gives a little more meaning to what I'm doing over here.
