What was the average life expectancy of a medic after he got off the chopper in Vietnam?

Answer 16 minutes for a machine gunner entering a combat zone I was a Naval Hospital Corpsman in 1979. I attended a "c" school-Field Medical Service School- were I was tought combat medicine. My instructers were all Vietnam Veterens.My class was informed ,at that time, that a Corpsman's life expectancy 'in country' Vietnam was 19 minutes.

This time estimate was for the corpsman just getting off the jet that delivered him to Vietnam.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
