Private Medical Training

Sometime in '71 WRAMC sent a team to Bragg test some of our medics.
Most of the guys tested had at least 1 tour in VN.
These guy's were tested 4 or 5 times before WRAMC was happy.

This was the start of the Army PA program.
The first PA class was 37 guys, 36 of these came from SF.
