Technically a Motor Vehicle Operator (Army MOS 88M, USMC MOS 3531), is the most dangerous (based on the number of deaths) Combat Support role in the Army and the Marines, at least since troops have been deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan.
An Army medic is going to do anything that a civilian Paramedic will do and then some. As well as the normal day to day injuries there are of course the violent things such as gunshots, shrapnel wounds, and then the violent amputations caused by Artillery, Mortar, and mine detonations. Medics in the Armed Forces are equal to and superior to Paramedics if they are really trying to do their jobs. Personally my hat is off to the medics and corpsmen on the front lines. The most difficult award to earn in the Army is the Expert Field Medical Badge and those who wear it are due the respect of everyone. Good luck to you.
