Imagine how scary it must be having a medical emergency and being 250 miles straight up from any medical help.
And I thought having a medical emergency on a submarine was scary.
it’s pretty scary in most of the USA, too
Well you have a well trained corpsman on a sub. At least usually a Sr. Chief or better. I’d trust them as much as any doctor. And if the problem is severe enough, you can always surface and get a helicopter out there. Its rare but it happens.
And if you can’t surface, well… there isn’t anything a doctors going to do for you.
I’m aware. I was the medical emergency on the sub.
Me too!!

Yay uncommon medical histories!
I bounced my way down the sail access ladder, through the upper level deck hatch, and landed in middle level.
What was yours?
