Happy Holidays!

I did 2 talks at MOAB.

I reviewed how PJ PFC training has evolved and a philosophy for training, as well as validation and experience;  expansion for all Teams to do O Low Titer testing, experience with Telemedicine Consultation (telecon), and important clinical training opportunities.

Please ask friends and family support the Pararescue Foundation this holiday season. Its a great gift idea for them to make a contribution in your honor, or you for them!
