    just_cause replied to Care&Joy's topic in Government, Military

    Care&Joy, Thanks for planning to serve! Do you live near a military installation? If so I highly recommend 'shadowing' a military nurse for a day. Even if it is an AF nurse or Navy nurse you...

    just_cause replied to woknblues's topic in Government, Military
