. Incidentally, the highest standards, at least in the Navy for enlisted ranks, Corpsman doesn't even compare to AW (aviation warfare operator) or any of the Nuke rates. Now if you are talking MDs, whole different ball of wax, but to compare medics to Aviators (even Army ones) in terms of requirements, is pretty far fetched...
You know not of what you speak, at all. I've taught TCCC to Navy corpsmen, Seabees are WAY smarter.
Comparing a fleet corpsman to an SF medic means you ain't gotta clue. If you actually knew someone with a trident he would quickly disabuse you of that silly notion.
The washout rate in the old SF Medic course was several times that of any flyboy course. It was always so high they were continually investigated by TRADOC. The avg IQ of the grads was higher than that of the O's coming out of the SF Q Course. That fact was straight from the USASOC shrink.
