Teaching last minute Halloween 🎃 👻 classes late at night to those willing to learn, deploying, or got done trick or treating with their kids. With the way the world is going , never hurts to learn something new to save lives. It’s awesome we now have a office / building along with 24 hour access along with staff that works wither public safety, private military contracting, nursing and etc to be flexible for those of us that go bump in the night. Good seeing an old war friend again along with his family and another Ukraine friend form back in the day too. Honored again to train with those willing to put in the work even in the odd hours when it’s dark / spooky 👻 out. Be willing to train and be flexible if you want to adapt .Also , Halloween is a good time to stock up for fake blood for training and check out , , and . 🫀🧠🫁

There are new updates with AHA / Red Cross BLS CPR to other courses you need to stay on top of. Same with Stop the bleeding all the Way up to NAEMT TCCC/ TECC and the list goes on. Medicine either stays the same or changes / updates whether you agree or not. Try taking new course every 2 years because a lot of certs are usually good for 2-3 years. A lot of jobs require you to have CPR first aid to various certifications. If you don’t have the cert for certain jobs especially in health care, first responder, military, contracting and etc, then you won’t get the job or be in a world of hurt if you’re doing the wrong interventions.Try to learn something new daily as well! Challenge yourself / challenge your mind. Be up to date and know what’s out there. Want to thank for putting in work like@we have over the years , traveling, training, and spreading knowledge that works! Always a big supporter of small businesses including veteran owned, women owned or just businesses that hustle / grind to help better people and/or society. More to come and check out the pics / vids on this post of the times of us teaching hands on courses with feed back cpr dummies. Pretty neat stuff. Get your certs / classes in if you need a cert for work or you just want to brush up on your cpr first aid skills ⛑️ 🩹 🫀🧠🫁 ❤️

Want to take the time to thank , , and sending me a pair of gunderpants with a badass hat 🧢! If you carry a gun as a cop, civilian, military, contractor, executive protection, security, and the list goes on, no excuse to carry edc med kits like from , , and again , list goes on. If you’re carrying something that can cause harm to you or others , might need training to be proficient saving your life and others. Did a walk with the gunderpants with my m2.0 compact 9mm and edc med kit . Very comfortable and didn’t really feel the gun push on the junk, thigh and other places like some ccw conceal kits usually do. Very comfortable and not as noticeable as some kits / gear. Very good for concealment. But go check out and try them out if you’re about that life ! 🫀🧠🫁

Trying out Thermals in our classes to show how heat travels and how to hide from thermal cameras temporarily. Very relevant due to drones and cameras having this technology nowadays especially in current conflicts / wars. Heat travels in conduction, convection , radiation, and other forms . Your body produces heat even in the elements an understanding this could mean life or death. Going to catch up on more posts and always learning as we train each time. That’s the point of training is learning as you go even if you attend as a student or instructor. Flir cameras you can get cheap as well on Amazon , a fire station, or other resources. We have done night classes as well with night vision and etc too to show how to adjust even in the darkness. As you can see , we’re experimenting with a tarp and space blanket. Our enemies used cover / concealment as well to hide from us when we were looking for them in combat with thermals / we did the same vice versa over years of various Wars . Pretty neat stuff ! More to come and time to train ! 🫀🧠🫁

Hate making posts like this but I’m going to honor another Warrior that kept me and others in check over the years. Marcus aka (Mark Xero) was a real one as real as they come. I learned from him not only in my Jiu Jitsu Journey but in life in general. He would actually come to our medical classes with people like , , and even after training he would just ask perfect questions even with .the.frech and no Gi Thursday classes . Even in our trauma classes he would ask good questions like he would for Jiu Jitsu / MMA classes. He even put me in check at times and I needed that so did others. His ankle locks were nasty/ good and I would tap immediately if he got a hold of my ankles. Even my paramedics government contractors who been to Warzones said he should have been a paramedic, nurse , or Doctor how smart he was. He surgical in Jiu Jitsu and anyone who knew him in the fighting community knew that he can challenge anyone , any size and anytime. .the.frech and I as big buys should have issues rolling against him and we watched him go against people in competition 100 plus or more pounds than him because he was that good. We’re going to miss you Marcus and thank you for keeping guys like me in check over the years especially on the mats. You went out like a champ but also, a humble warrior. Forever our Fallen. ⚡️

So back to TCCC / Combat medicine related type posts. For those of you interested in TECC/ TCCC to prolonged field care, how would you treat this ? What else would you look for if this patient walks up to you and says “Doc , I think I been hit / shoot “ or “my I think took a round”. A few of us experienced this state side to overseas treating patients like this after a gunfight, active shooter, or War. This was a picture one of our Ukraine students / instructors sent us . Lots of factors can happen if someone is hit with a high caliber round while wearing body armor. Another thing with the MARCH PAWS or whatever trauma assessment you do in the field , be detailed, be quick, and be aware of your surroundings especially, if the fire fight is on going. When the patient is stable, the treating physician should evaluate the vest for the location of the shot(s) and if the shot(s) perforated or penetrated the vest.
Perforation — the shot went all the way through the vest / body armor .
Pe*******on — the shot went into the vest / body armor and was stopped.
Fragments / splashing fragments towards the body including face or other parts of the body if the body armor plate was hit or different body armor plate materials can be a factor as well. Force , pressure , velocity , and other factors can be an issue that can create internal trauma inside the body as well. Definitely teach / do blood sweeps with and without body armor on especially in a Warzone / conflict zone . Check out , , , and if you want to learn more. Let us know in the comments if you experienced this personally , treated someone who was shot in the body armor plate like this , ans how would you treat / assess this if this was your patient depending on scenario. 🫀🧠🫁

Thank you everyone for the birthday 🎂 wishes! Thank you again to , , , and everyone else previous posts and those we forgot to mention that know what’s up. Really sad I didn’t see Nelly the rapper or the St lunatics including Murphy Lee during our trip to St.Louis. I did want a set of grillz and I do have a set of black air force ones which are clean to this day 🔥 had a blast competing and got more medals to add to the collection. Doesn’t matter what people think or say . A lot of times social media can be toxic so why not be fun. Will post more medical stuff after this post and definitely if you want to be inspired , check out my former Marine squad mates , , and ! They’re legit! From acting , climbing mountains , and kicking ass on the mats with jiu jitsu with no legs above the knees ! They alone with many we treated in combat to state side motivate us daily ! Time to grind and time to shine ! Never stop learning and never listen to anyone who doubts you from the go! More to come and thank you again everyone ! 🫀🧠🫁

Kinesiology tape or “KT / K tape “ as most call it . Definitely recommend it if you do compete in jiu jitsu, body building, or want to rehabilitate quick , fast and in a hurry. Kinesiology tape is a thin, flexible tape that was developed to aid muscle movement and enhance athletic performance. It is often used to relieve pain, reduce swelling, and inflammation and provide support to joints and muscles. As you can see , is pretty decent applying on me when I had to compete myself . Pretty ironic because / Chris was one of the Marines who was in my squad in Afghanistan and now he’s rendering aid to me even though I was his corpsman. We also used product on Chris s hand and on other athletes that had cuts, nose bleeds 👃 🩸, and etc which we highly recommend as well. But , if you’re a corpsman / combat medic, cutman, or work sporting events , definitely check out KT / k tape and products ! 🫀🧠🫁

What’s your “everyday carry “ even medical supplies when you travel out of the state our country as a “cutman” , medic, contractor, Leo, or just a regular person ? Even if you compete as an athlete , what medical supplies / training do you usually carry.During the competition with / , the medic at the competition didn’t know what “Ktape” was and as a cutman myself who also follows who patches up fighters globally, many don’t know not only basic trauma medicine / first aid 🩹 ⛑️, but also sports medicine. Sports medicine is also relevant to TCCC/ TECC because people including operators get hurt by sports medicine injuries like rolled ankles, blisters, heat exhaustion, heat stroke, dehydration, broken extremities , and the list goes on. I have seen atheletes not able to wrap their hands, ankles and etc. If youre a combat medic / corpsman, nurse , and etc, splitting to basic sports medicine is so crucial for any mission/ medicine to make sure you and your crews can get the job done even when you’re hurt or they’re hurt / speaking for personal experience. But as far as EDC goes if you travel, check out , , , and .0 .We also used products for sporting events too for bleeds / cuts which their products work as well. More to come with our traveling adventures and again, congrats to / for showing up in the recent competition in St. Louis ! More medical to motivational stuff coming up ! 🫀🧠🫁

More pics and vids of / and I kicking ass and taking names for the St Louis Competition in Jiu Jitsu . Chris was one of the marines in my squad who stepped on one of the IEDs that fatally killed one marine and wounded 7 others along with another amputee Brad Ivanchan who also is a badass. Will post on IG / business page but , got emotional and super excited seeing a man like Chris who by the way didn’t have pain meds the night we got hit due to my med pack being blown up, motivates us all to this day !

Chris did well and he did get robbed for one match by a bs stalling call even though he was winning the match and , his hand was cut up with a large gash that prevented him grabbing others during his matches. There was another amputee there who was a single amputee / ranger / contractor who lost his leg in Iraq there that talked to Chris who wasn’t competing but maybe just maybe, Chris motivated people like him which is all it’s about.

Motivation is always key. With me , I was 3 wins and 2 loses against men larger than me and lost to a cop who was a beast / strong AF and was missing his right trigger finger due to a K-9 unit / dog bitting his finger off. But anyway, Chris did an awesome job and hopefully it motivates others to keep going no matter what . Beyond proud of Chris , Wayne, his family and others who showed up ! 🫀🧠🫁

Rehabilitation is so important especially with public safety, nursing, contracting and etc . Thank you , and of course for the badass combat medic shirt ! These organizations care about people getting better whether it’s mental, spiritual, and physical! Highly recommend them if you’re in pain constantly and have a lot on your mind. Excited to see / soon! The last time we saw each other was for Mark Sullivans / our squad mate who passed as a wildland fire fighter nearly 10 years ago. Really do appreciate the dms and calls by a few of you concerned about the false / alarms of cancer even though there’s masses / cyst on my right kidney, liver, and pancreas. The one on kidney is growing but Va and others are keeping an eye on it so nothing to worry about. They did find additional shrapnel from IEDs / bombs in my body from 12 years ago and I’m blessed to be around such awesome people in health care who caught it. Guys like Chris and kept me going over the years even after our squads night mass cass years ago from Sangin Afghanistan, a lot of us kept going and moved. To this day , we still motivate each other and many others we come across. Honored to be on this Journey and time to handle business as always. 🫀🧠🫁

Getting ready for a competition with /Chris Vanetten. If you google Brad Ivanchan / and Chris Vanetten , they’re the toughest men I know. They’re both above the knee double amputees that lost their legs due to multiple ied explosions that cause multiple causalities and a KIA the late hours / early morning of June13 2012 that resulted in one marine death . I was their squad corpsman / medic. As we get ready for this completion , I’m beyond excited to see Chris in action with his injuries on the mat doing BJJ this upcoming weekend at St. Louis. I will be competing / fighting along side him once again.

I want to thank people like Joe / Drew at ronin along with a few others who had my back over the years same with , : , Levi , / , , , , and of course for the years of support as well especially to veterans and first responders. Want to mention those I forgot to mention who are tagged on this post and if I forgot to mention you, say something in the comments. Guys like Chris taught me courage under fire over the years and guys like Chris taught me how to take a punch in the face by life , smile and keep moving forward .

Chris also didn’t have pay meds the night we got ambushed because my med pack got blown up the second / multiple blasts that injured a few in our squad, killed a marine and took both him and brads legs above the kneed. Our squad was able to keep each other alive in pure darkness from 45 minutes that needed up taking hours/ longer than expected June 13 2012.

It’s going to be amazing seeing Chris in action and representing the fallen squadmates like Taylor Baune who died that terrible night / morning and Mark Sullivan who died like a warrior as a wildland fire fighter . Time to put in work and “prove them wrong” as they say for . 🫀🧠🫁
