PLEASE let me know ASAP on this thread that you are attending and number of guests if any.  The instructor would like to prepare the correct number of handouts.  Handouts are only available to those attending the class.

This is a very important skill for each of us and AS instructors all over the nation highly recommend this class.

I have come here to chew gum and teach riflemen the art of shooting one hole groups and I'm all out of bubblegum.

This is a great class!  I encourage all volunteers to take it.  You could save someone's life with the skills learned.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin, 1775

"A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies."  George Washington 1790

I was waiting for confirmation from one person, but I guess it's just me.

I replied via text, and will do so here just to be sure. I am in!
The difference between a novice and a master: the novice does it until they get it right. The master does it until they can't get it wrong.

When you arrive at the hospital you will park at the front of the hospital and walk in the main entrance. Once you've gone through security, you will either turn right and go down the stairs to the lower floor, or keep going straight and take the elevators. Auditorium A&B will be on the other side of the cafeteria. There is will a big sign outside that says Stop The Bleed.   

SEE YOU THERE!!!

Great class! Thanks for setting it up, Black Knight!

My father didn't serve in WWII.  It wasn't for lack of trying.  He attempted to enlist 3 separate times.  The last time the doctor said he was too short.  He responded that he signed up again because he said he saw a poster that was recruiting short men to be pilots.  The doctor said, "Short, yes.  But this is ridiculous."  In my book, he's still a hero.

Excellent class I'm glad I made the time to go.

And the "Possible" actually happened.  Six AS Instructors (one Blue hat) and two guests attended a Stop the Bleed class at Skyline Medical Center in Nashville, TN, on October 16, 2021.  Instruction was followed by practical exercises to fix in mind the techniques presented.  This instruction added a very valuable skill set to the instructors' repertoire.  All were very glad that they attended the class and highly recommended this it to other AS Instructors.
