JerrySTL ★ Posted December 30, 2020 Share #2 Posted December 30, 2020 They should just give out the shots like I got in basic training with a jet injector. To purge air bubbles, the med techs would shoot out a 3-foot stream. Scary. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kzoo Posted December 30, 2020 Share #6 Posted December 30, 2020 I thought this was about people at talk too much. I was wondering why @Razors Edge wasn't mentioned in the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To purge air bubbles, the med techs would shoot out a 3-foot stream. Scary. Those injectors would cut a slit in your arm if you didn't hold still. Our corpsmen would grasp your arm firmly before injecting. For those that don't know, you get a lot of shots when you go into the service. Most are a cocktail of inoculants and are injected into the upper arm as demonstrated above. One of the shots we got had potentially serious effects on some people. The potential was so bad we had to receive the injection in our buttocks, sit down for a few minutes after the shot, and go on light duty for the next 36 hours. Guys were cautioned not to jump out of their top rack for fear that they would immediately collapse on the floor. See, we normally didn't rest for anything until lights out. Even if you needed to see a doctor for whatever, you had to double time it (run) to and from the hospital. So the gathering of recruits sprawled all over the floor in the med facility after the injection looked like a colony of seals on the beach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
