A little about Team Phantom Medics
Team Phantom Medics work in a combat support hospital. According to http://militarymedic.com/combat-support-hospital/, "A combat support hospital is a modern medical marvel. It can be erected relatively quickly, almost anywhere, and it can accommodate hundreds of wounded soldiers at one time. Treating traumatic injuries that require surgery is the main function of a combat support hospital, with immediate transport to a fixed medical facility far from the battlefield as the second most important mission of the hospital unit."

Our recipients are OR Technicians, Combat Medics, Nurses, etc. Teena says, "They are like a modern day M*A*S*H!" This is the next generation of the Mobile Army Surgical Hospital. Typical MASH canvas tents have been replaced with with more durable walls and roofs and they have the advantage of much better technology, plus ample air conditioning. Our team has approximately 12 Soldiers, both male and female.
Special Requests
Teena mentioned that there are no PX facilities. They can always use hygiene items, and they love spicy snacks (hot cheetos is a fave). Socks, summer cooling fun stuff.
