Surgical Tech

I have a friend that is a Corpsman Surgical Tech. She does primarily OB surgeries. She also works shifts cleaning all the medical equipment used in the entire hospital (disinfecting/autoclaving/etc.).

They are almost exactly the same. Their schooling is much shorter but they get the same credentials when they're done with their schooling. Same goes for a lot of the other C-Schools that have a civilian equivalent.
