By the end of the year, I will have my Paramedic, and my Critical Care certification. Is it possible to skip the Ft. Sam part of the Flight medic school entirely and go straight to Rucker? Thanks.

Only if you have experience (2 years busy 911 svc and experience in CC) however we will not make the Soldier go through the paramedic portion. They will go straight to the CC portion. Please see ATRRS 300-F2 requirements and request to attend the school through your CoC once you re-enlist for a valid F2 position. 300-F2 is a requirement if the Soldier has no experience working CC.

Unfortunately, no. It'd be like a civilian trained helicopter pilot skipping Army flight school. However, you can look at it on the bright side; your training should be easier since you've already gotten a good handle on most of the tasks.

You will go to school and damn well like it. You will be trained to Army standards,not civilian.

Have you been picked up for flight medic school? I doubt it seeing your rank. No, you cannot skip Fort Sam that's not how that works. Even if you had your paramedic, you still have to go there.

Because your rank I can see you still haven’t got some Army knowledge. Let me enlighten you a bit:
The Army way is the hard and long way!!!!! No short cuts but I’m very seldom instances. Don’t take it the wrong way, there are valid reasons for it.

Not Unless Things Have Changed... You Have To Check All The Boxes... Even If You Get To Ft. Sam And Take The Finals To Prove You Are Ahead Of The Game... Its An ABC/123 kind Of Thing
