And goats

We used goats at the Academy of Health Sciences, Ft Sam Houston, TX. Combat Casualty Care Course, I was an instructor there. Way back when.

Used anesthetized goats and fired single .223 round into their hindquarters so docs could practice wound debridement on living tissue.

Healty tissue twitches when you cut around the wound, so you get a fell of how to clean it up.

Did a dozen other operative procedures after that, all the while keeping animal alive and under sedation.

Oh yeah, we had 60 Minutes crews hanging around, and protestors.

Just another day on the job for us. Camp Bullis TX was our real base where we did lots more fun things like rappelling and explosions, field work, good times.
