LOL. Yes. I totally agree. That's why I said that even I don't know what to call myself. People question me on my views and I've been called everything from a tree hugging hippie to one step away from being an authoritarian. Who freaking knows. I'm for everyone minding their own business and your rights end when they start to step on mine. Marry whomever you want - that is of age, dress how you like, read whatever you like, do whatever you want to your own body, and don't try to dictate your beliefs to me. The slow burn of our country started a few administrations ago. People are just now starting seeing the smoke today.

I sincerely hope they're ready to hold the world together. Americans have screwed ourselves.

Nope. Denor was correct. Navy speak. I was a navy corpsman, lab technologist, & denor.

I'm doing something else in the medical field. I was a navy corpsman and I specialized in lab tech & denor. Believe it or not, civilian employers don't recognize military medical training. I couldn't even get a job as a phlebotomist after I got out and attended college. Plus, people make more per hour starting at Costco than denors make with experience. I had a few where the NIS were involved. Those were REALLY long days. Those guys didn't have a sense of humor at all. But then again, most people working in the medical field have a morbid sense of humor.

Navy medical term for autopsy assistant.

Autopsy Assistant. It was only the pathologist and myself. While he took the samples of the organs he wanted, I had to extract the brain. Once he was finished, I had to collect everything up, bag it, place it into the abdominal cavity, fill in the chest & head cavities with gauze, sew everything back up, wash all the blood off the body, and then put it back into a body bag. We had nicknames for different types of deaths.
