Soviet Medics

    Combat medics are responsible for providing emergency medical treatment at a point of wounding in a combat. Geneva convention protects these trained medical personnel as non-combatants in the act of rendering aid. In Bolt Action medics may be considered by many people as useless and therefore are not so popular but they are nice miniatures!

Doctor, nurse and stretcher bearer


   Matryona Necheporchukova was a combat medic of the Red Army who rescued 250 wounded soldiers and officers during WW2. She was awarded the Order of Glory 1st Class.

   Combat medics carry small arms, to be used to protect themselves and the wounded in their care.

   To make the stretcher I cut the blades of two plastic spears, glued the shafts together and wrap them with foil.

   Recently, we walked the Sarakina gorge. It is an easy one. No need for medics to rescue us!










   That's it for today! Stay tuned for more!
