In the Army medical community, the Expert Field Medical Badge is legendary. It’s a test of your resolve. With a brutal 70% to 80% attrition rate, most who attempt it will go home empty-handed. But this year, two medical professionals from Irwin Army Community Hospital (a lab tech and a biomedical equipment specialist) stepped away from the facility to chase after the ultimate medical discriminator. Discover what it takes to achieve the Army's premier medical badge through the eyes of the candidates fighting for it, and the leader who has already stood in their boots.
