New to the Medical Ward

[johnson]

Howard jumped out of the troop carrier he was brought to the unit in. He started walking around trying to find the Medical Ward. Once he saw the large redcross on the roof, he headed over. The time was half past 7 in the morning. As Howard walked the cold morning air bit at his cheeks. Howard didn't let that bother him as he headed into the Medical Ward. He pushed open the door only to be hit by a blast of warm air, refreshing he thought. The floor was slippery from the muddy boots of soldiers who came in. Howard found the Post Operating Room, and he started to look for another medical person.

Jack had just finished getting a bullet out of a mans leg and left the stitching to the others he just sat down.He had been on the go all day not a moments rest he was getting tired he was finding it hard to concentrate.Jack saw the new man walk through the doors and look around.The place wasn't that crowded but there was enough people there.Jack wasn't busy so he strolled over to the new guy and asked

"Whats your name"

The guy was obviously new because he looked dazed.

"Anyway I'm Jack Daniels, I think you'll like it here."

He was not telling the truth because the new recruits always found it hard he remembered when he first joined he found it extremely hard at first.He studied the man he was in good shape but didn't look very experienced but he didn't let looks deceive him.He looked to see a man being stretchered in with blood all over his chest.He thought about helping but then saw that there was people there already who new what they were doing.He turned back to the guy.He then said

"Not a very good first introduction to army but you'll get used to it it's always like this."

He then looked back to see that it was under control and said to the man

"Welcome to the army".

Howard heard the man ask the questions. When the man called Jack Daniels stopped talking, he replied.

"My name is Johnson, Howard, Sergeant, Medical Technician 3rd Class."

When Howard said this he was thinking this other man was an officer, because of him not wearing any insignia at the time. He then started to feel silly at the way he introduced himself. When he was about to say thanks, he saw a fresh load of wounded come in. Howard ran forward to the wounded men and was giving out orders to the corpsmen.

"Another shot of penicillen for this one. Get some O negative blood over here."

Howard's adrenaline was pumping now, with all of the wounded coming in. When he was finished with a small portion of the triage he ran to the scrub room. He started to scrub up. Howard then went into the room and looked at a leg that was missing the foot. He silently swore "Damn German mines." and started to pull shrapenal out of the leg. Once he was done he told another man to stitch it up. He walked over to another table and saw a man. He asked "What is wrong with this man?" A corpsman answered that he had a collapsed lung. Upon hearing that Howard looked down at his feet and told the corpsman to go and get a surgeon for the operation. That was an awful decision he thought, because of me that man is going to die. Howard decided to help out some more. After doing two more legs and an arm wound he walked out of the operating room. Howard sat down on a bench and sighed.

Jack saw the wounded people comin in but as he started walking in to help a group of sergeans rushed in and he couldn't get in.So he looked around and saw a man wothout a leg he rushed over and began segery .
When he finally finished he walked to the wash room to get cleaned up he was covered in blood. He then stopped and thought about all the lives he has helped save he then carried on washing.When he finished washing he went to find him. He found howard on a abench and went to sot by him.

"Are you ok Howard"He asked

The man looked a bit pale but ok. He wanted to help but didn't know what to say.He stood up and said to Howard

"Come on lets go for a walk."
