expert caretaker on and off the battlefield.
You will address the health care needs of civilians after natural
disasters or civil emergencies; treat injuries and illnesses
suffered by Soldiers through the administration of immediate
emergency care and ongoing care; and support and manage medical
readiness, supplies, and equipment.

career as an emergency medical technician, medical assistant, a
medication aide, or physician's assistant. Soldiers in this MOS
must also obtain certification from the National Registry of
