Medical assistant

Oh, a CMA.

What's that? Certified medical assistant, medical technician.

Well, Shane, do you know any CMAs in your travels of being a travel nurse? Who gets paid more?

Him.

No comp.

And it was an entire summer of trades training.

And it was called the Medical Assistant Program.

At the time, Commander Stuart Alsgaard was the commanding officer of HMCS Quadra, and it was his dream child to bring in a medical assistant program.

And he had felt at the time that it would provide a lot of benefit to cadets wanting to move on in their life and careers.

So I signed up, and that was my second visit to HMCS Quadra.

And then that's when it really took off as well, because I was using the trade.

I was attached to infantry exercises, artillery exercises.

And again, because of the limited number of medical assistants at the time, there was only, I think, three or four of us in the company, is that...

And I just want to know what is the answer to that particular question.

so um so yeah i think that's part of it and i and i think it's also because historically for the vast majority of our history humanity has been illiterate right illiterate and people have been able to read or write you know until relatively recently in human history And which means that when the NBI and the Russell had come, they didn't come handing people pamphlets or copies of the Koran.

They weren't handing them tapes or CDs or any other type of recording.

Right.
