SUGGESTED LEAD:
MEDICS. SAVING LIVES IS THEIR JOB, NO MATTER HOW THAT MUST BE
ACCOMPLISHED. SSGT JAEL LABORN HAS MORE.
SUGGESTED TAG:
THE SELECTIVE ARMAMENT PERSONNEL COURSE IS THREE DAYS LONG.
REPORTER:
SERVICE BEFORE SELF. DOING WHAT’S ASKED, NOT WHAT YOU WANT. SSGT
ADAM FOWLER EXPLAINS.
SB:
WE ARE SELECTIVE ARMAMENT PERSONNEL. MY TEAM CONSISTS OF FIVE
INDIVIDUALS AND I’M THE SECURITY TEAM CHIEF. WE MAINLY JUST STAY
HERE AND WE TAKE CARE OF OUR FACILITY. WE DO PERIMETER SWEEPS OF
OUR AREA AND MAINTAIN A DEFENSE POSTURE AND ENGAGE FORCES AS
NEEDED. I’VE BEEN A DENTAL LAB TECH FOR ABOUT TEN YEARS NOW.
IT’S ARTS AND CRAFTS YOU HAVE TO CREATE WITH YOUR HANDS SO THAT
IN ITSELF IS REWARDING. MY MOTHER WAS A CHIEF IN THE NAVY,
AUNTS, UNCLES, GRANDPARENTS, GREAT-GRANDPARENTS GOING ALL THE
WAY BACK BEFORE THERE WAS AN AIR FORCE. IT’S KIND OF A FAMILY
TRADITION. MOST OF US ALL HAVE BEEN IN THE MEDICAL CAREER FIELD.
REPORTER:
WHETHER INSIDE THE HOSPITAL OR OUTSIDE SAVING LIVES IS BOTTOM
LINE FOR THESE AIRMEN.
SB:
AS MEDICS THIS TYPICALLY ISN’T A ROLE THAT WE STEP INTO.
HOWEVER, WITH THE TRAINING AND EXERCISES THAT WE GO THROUGH I DO
FEEL THAT WE WOULD FEEL COMPETENT TO BE ABLE TO DEFEND THE BASE
AND DEFEND THE MED GROUP. WE’VE TRAINED TOGETHER, WE WORK
TOEGETHER, WE KNOW EACH OTHER FARILY WELL I FEEL THAT
CONTRIBUTES VERY WELL TO THE CAUSE AND WE KIND OF KNOW WHAT EACH
IS GOING TO DO.
