My primary concern is patient care. Being a Medevac crewchief in Afghanistan last year, we had numerous missions were canceled even though we were 5-10 minutes from POI. Instead, they would spool up Pedro, or Tricky(Brits). The only problem with that is Pedro, and Tricky were 30 minutes away.
So far, after watching this show, I have seen no difference in the way Pedro and Medevac operate in Afghanistan. What's more cost effective? If you haven't noticed yet, ( during the show) when you see Pedro leaving the airfield, you can see a Medevac units aircraft parked right beside them.
Another obsevation is their medical abilities have not impressed me thusfar. I am only comparing what I experienced out of FOB Edi last year, ( which was the busiest in theatre).
