Stalker & Falcon are commanders so would rarely be employed as medics.
Spirit, Sidetrack, Blast Off, Hard Drive - secondary roles as medics.
Inferno & Barbecue - flight-line/QRF medics (along with jaws of life cutting tools)
Barrel-Roll and Airborne (Six): specialists in high-altitude parachute-related medicine.
Ice-Storm: specialist in extreme cold; diving; mountaineering medicine
Med Alert & Stretcher & Sideswipe [thanks to LC below for noting the omission): insufficient detail to determine if they'd have any specialized training.
Agree with your assessment. I do deviate though and make Link a SEAL medic and do away with the whole veterinary thing. It does not fit my Joe-verse.
Definitely hit the nail on the head in regards to Stalker and Falcon, they would be commanding troops, not providing medical care (unless things got really sticky and they needed a backup medic).
Med Alert, Stretcher and Sideswipe are tough ones. I did make both Stretcher and Sideswipe 68W Healthcare Specialists (combat medics) in my Joe-verse. Not sure on Med Alert, either a 68W or an 18D SF Medical Sergeant. Does anyone know of any source material that might help swing it either way (comics and such)?
