"Shabby" would never forgive me if I dont drop this in....sorry...just for balance,the vast majority of medics in the RKKA were infact blokes.
I only point this out because as Eastfront subjects are becoming more "popular" there has been a tendancy to rather over egg some aspects,from experiances in an RKKA living history group the most commenly asked question at times would be," why are you portraying a medic,your a bloke?"
,well,that and " your a medic,your not allowed to carry that machine gun(sic) (Ppsh) are you." .
