2 :
I'm going to have to go with the nursing of wounded AEF soldiers. What she is most famous for is founding the American Red Cross, so the nursing answer would make sense.
3 :
(a)
4 :
I'm sure that it's A. I wrote a whole paper on Clara Barton. She was a pioneer in women nurses on the battlefield during the civil war. She also went on to create the red cross foundation.

WikiLeaks: The truth is now out. How do you feel about it and did you still enjoy your breakfast?

i will try to enjoy my breakfast, but this is all very unsettling, and may I add scary.
2 :
I think I'll be enjoying my breakfast a little more than Hillary and Barack. Yet another Obama bonus: Never before has an administration LOST so many classified government documents. Pathetic. And yes, scary.
3 :
Hmm... I find this one interesting... "Reports that the King of Bahrain and King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia urged the Americans to take military action to halt Iran's nuclear programme."
4 :
Pretty much as expected. The confirmation is nice. Breakie is just fine.

Thanks for that nice detailed list. I haven't had time to really study what's been released yet. Your list demonstrates that we humans aren't nearly as sophisticated and evolved as we like to pretend. Maybe we'll nuke or pollute ourselves out of existence. Seems quite likely with the way things are going. As for Wikileaks, maybe our "leaders" all need to get their games exposed. They've secretly bargained our lives and fortunes away for far too long. Go Julian! Doesn't sound to me like lives will be lost for that -- just a bit of politician dignity will be lost is all, and that's a good thing. Not worried about breakfast as I haven't even gotten to bed yet. @@

Yea, I do enjoy actually my breakfast. Politicians have avoided introduction of new mechanisms of responsibility for their international actions. Everything continued to be covered with dark veil of 'state secrecy' which allowed them decide the questions of war and peace without ANY control of their constituency. The system has not been reformed and we paid THOUSANDS of lives of young boys in uniformed killed in Iraq and Afghan - two wars started by governments of democratic countries just at the snap of fingers without a bit of sanction on the part of peoples that elected them. No the DARE give some cynical nonsense about the ' weakileaks putting in jeopardy lifes'!! So once there are no direct control over those games on the part of governments provided by the existing democratic systems, the Internet and good will of free global community came to the assistance. I do think that the founder of the Weakileak is more worthy of the Nobel Price than Obama (although I am a great fan of this president and persona)

what do you have to do to become a STNA (State Tested Nurse Aid)
what do you have to do to become a STNA (State Tested Nurse Aid)?
i live in geneva ohio and i was wondering what do you actuall do to become a STNA i know training can take as little as two weeks but what do you doin your training at the ones by my house they only do it at certain times of the year. Like i called a place called Rae Anne's and they do training and they said they dont start a new class until march. And when i asked them about how much it is for the training they were not aloud to give out any info over the phone and that I had to walk in there and read their info sheet. Does anyone know why they would not ell me over the phone? and i know some facilities will let you train for free if you promise to work for them for at least one year i do not know if they are one maybe this is the reason why they wouldnt tell me over the phone but its a simple question do not know why they just wouldnt say

what position in the millitary would a nurse get the most combat training
what position in the millitary would a nurse get the most combat training?
Im joining the military soon with a BSN and i know that under the Geneva convention nurses are allowed the right to protect their patients but im just simply curious about some of the options in military for this field. As ignorant as this may sound please refrain a little from making fun of the post,

1 :
"Position"? If you want combat, go into an armored cav squadron or an infantry battalion. Be careful what you wish for...
2 :
As a nurse you wont see much if any combat in your career. Considering that, it would be a waste of taxpayers money to train you beyond basic combat skills.
3 :
If a Nurse with a BSN joins the military, then he/she serves as a Nurse. There are options to serve in a variety of specialty areas, such as Operating Room, Emergency Medical Trauma, Critical Care, so on and so forth. We all get the same military training, including weapons qualification, defending our hospital, etc in the event we get attacked. We are not expected to engage in combat, if that is what you are asking. Not sure what you are really looking for in an answer, so please feel free to contact me or add additional details.
4 :
Even though you have a BSN no one will MAKE you go in as a Nurse. That is YOUR choice. So if you want to be in combat arms..join something besides Nursing. I have a buddy that hold a JD (law degree) and is licensed attorney and serves as an Infantry Officer because that is what he WANTS to do. Has no desire to do law in the military.
5 :
Army. Combat Medic code: 68W. W is for whiskey Has the highest rate for PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder)
6 :
ok. well there is the officer side and enlisted side. for enlisted a 68W is a health care specialist. which is often called a combat medic. because they can be attached to any type of line unit. and they are the first responder on the line. so you could easily be in a scout, IN, MT, EN, MI or any other type of unit. they move, you move. as an officer you are not outside the wire as much. you are in a clinic and hospital seeing patience. even as a BN PA, you don't go on convoys and see much action. my husband is a 68W. in his 20+ years he has seen lots of combat. he has put many people back together again. some lived and some died. but he was always their first chance of survival. usually he just stabilizes them and gets them MEDIVACed out. very rairly does he find out if they "made it" unless they are in his unit. he see it in the news paper or even once he saw the guy one Oprah holding a picture of the medic who saved his life, him
