I was a Hospital Corpsman in the United States Navy from 2006 to 2011 where I achieved the rank of E5. I then briefly joined the Navy Reserves until 2013 where I made one more rank and left the military as an E6. It feels like a different life at this point, but I look back on this time mostly fondly.
The posts here are mostly from a very old blog where I prolifically posted musings while working in a hospital and dreaming of becoming a doctor.
