Summary
I have been fortunate to have had a wide range of experiences during my military career as an Casualty First Aid Instructor. These have taken me from the scrubs of South Armagh in Northern Ireland at the end of the troubles, to the remote dusty northern parts of the Balkans. I have spent many hours on exercise with the troops in difficult circumstances taking up and down medical tents and providing on the ground medical care whilst also participating in the command group to advise on medical needs and logistical planning.
