Update: Autumn NC PATCON (Patriot Convention) October 4th - 7th 2012


Was slotted to be in Africa during the PatCon but managed to wiggle out. Not that I mind working there, its just that I want to be here for the election and the PatCon.

Please make sure that everyone knows this is not the full TCCC course. That takes a week to complete and cost alot more than $20. I am doing this 2 hour overview mainly to introduce people to what it is and how it differs from any type of first aid training they are likely to find in the civilian world. Hopefully they will come away with an understanding of how combat medicine is radically different from what the EMS system brings when you are in a car wreck.

There is a decade of hard science behind this stuff and all of it came from the battlefield through trial and error, not only ours , we studied other country's combat data from Russia to Israel to South Africa.

Anyone interested in getting this training for their group will need to apply to one of several teams which offer it.
