No disrespect to him, but I do find this "swapping of oaths" to be problematic. :dntknw:

That is cool. One day you tell someone they have the flu. Next day your defending your country.

Not to sound like an A** but this completely negate's the Hypocritical Oath ! But I'd guess that's the point of the article.

Hypocritical is right! Wow. Talk about a conflict of interest.

Combat medics the world over face this dichotomy, it's nothing new.

Well, in his particular case though I bet he'll try his damnedest to keep collateral damage to a minimum (or at least he should). And he's somewhat more detached from killing by being in a chopper instead of on the ground, holding a rifle in one hand and a medical instrument in the other, so to speak... It's not as if he could land the chopper there to treat a possible pacient of his own doing...
