Dear Combat Medical Cadet:

Welcome aboard to the maiden voyage of Liberty Region 4-5 Combat Medical training. To facilitate an
optimal training experience for both yourself and your shipmates, it is imperative that you carefully read
and understand this welcome letter. When dealing with matters concerning the health, safety and
emergency care of your fellow cadets there is no room for skylarking. There will be a no tolerance policy
for lack of self-discipline or not adhering to the policies set forth by the COTC LCDR Robert Hooven.
As your OIC for this training evolution, I would like to briefly introduce myself. I am LTjg Courtney
Schroeter, NSCC. I am, by profession, an EMT and Firefighter serving in both the private and municipal
emergency response entities for the past 16 years. I have been a certified American Heart Association
instructor for the past 9 years. I am furthermore the Commanding Officer of Akron Battalion. It will be
my goal to pass on to each of you the lessons and knowledge gleaned from my experiences. Upon your
completion of Combat Medical, you will have gained the knowledge and confidence to perform the skills
necessary to provide early intervention in emergency situations. You will be certified in the areas of CPR
with AED, and First Aid. Furthermore, you will have the skills needed to effectively perform the duties of
your home units company/division corpsman. Forewarning, if you have a weak countenance to gore and/
or blood this training my not be for you. If you choose to pursue this training, you will be exposed to
graphic images of people at the worst moments of their lives. I do not sugar coat reality or the true face of
trauma. Some of the objectives of this training are as listed:
-CPR with AED
-First Aid- in both the controlled and combat situation.
-Land Navigation- You will learn to read a map beyond North, South, East and West.
-Patient Assessment- in both the controlled and combat situation.
-Marksmanship- The days of the medic going unarmed is no longer the reality.
-Field Operations and tactical maneuvering.
-High Angle and Ropes rescue techniques.
-Exposure to actual career paths in the Emergency Medical Fields through exposure to:
-US Coast Guard-Cleveland Harbor.
-Hospital Emergency Department visit.
-Private Ambulance Company Hands on training.
-Water Rescue- Swim Qualifications will be included.
-These are just the highlights, I will not show my cards at this point of the entirety of this training.
