Re: Lone Star Medic I Class

This sounds more like an "awareness" course. No way they can get in depth with all that material in only 2 days. And you're right gordo, it's far from a medic class.

3 posts and all of them training announcements.
 
Re: Lone Star Medic I Class

Having taken that class elsewhere from Caleb, you guys are right, how much can you squeeeze into the time alotted?

Having said that, it's an awareness class on steroids instucted by a really knowledgeble individual who not only has the ability to perform, but moreover the ability to accurately convey information in such manner that everyone in attendance can grasp.

And Caleb is fun at a party too.
