How many times have you deployed and what makes this deployment unique? This is my first deployment. There are a lot of Wright-Patt people here, so it kind of feels like home in a weird way.

How does your job differ in a deployed environment vs. home base? Back at my home station, I deal more with applied patient skills. Since we're limited in our capabilities, there's less focus on hands-on patient care from technicians, and more on manpower and patient movement.
