Summer assignments

D's summer schedule has changed. She isn't allowed to do Leatherneck because she'll only be a rising yuk. She'll have several weeks off, do CFT and then she'll take CMIT.

Course: Cadet Medical Intensive Training
Upon completion of the CMIT course the student will have the life saving skills and abilities to treat wounded soldiers on the battle field and in every day surroundings.

Course Description:
This program covers anatomy and physiology, initial patient survey and triage, airway management, oxygen therapy, and treatment of bleeding, shock, cardiac arrest, fractures, spinal injuries and other medical emergencies. Additional areas of study include automated external defibrillation, multi-lumen airways and general pharmacology.

Interesting, huh?
 
wpmom2011,
CMIT does sound interesting. Is that training done at West Point?
 
Would I be able to go to Airborne and Air Assault for my summers(not in the same one)? I want to go to both because I'll need Airborne for Ranger School and from what I hear, Air Assualt is used the more in the sand box.
 
Poyner,
I believe you would be able to do both. My son wants to do air assualt also, he had it has his second choice but luckily got his first choice...airborne. He'll try to get air assualt next summer.
