Combat medics during World War II proved extraordinarily capable, creative, and committed to doing anything necessary to perform their duties as the essential first link in a wounded soldier’s life chain. But because they were given no appropriate training, their combat competencies and relationships were literally born in blood. Dr. Tracy Shilcutt, Assistant Professor of History at Abilene Christian University, will tell their story at our November lecture. Dr. Shilcutt had done extensive research on the subject and has a manuscript detailing her findings currently under submission to the University Press of Kansas.
