Hello Friends,

The Special Forces Charitable Trust (SFCT) is hosting a sporting clay fundraiser, called The Great Americans Shoot, in California on September 30th, and I thought that you might be interested in hearing about it. We will also be posting pictures as the event continues!
 
Funds from the Shoot will help support the entire Special Operations Community and their Families.  In the past three years, this Shoot has raised over $3.5 million, and we are predicting that this year’s Shoot will bring in over $1 million, making it the most significant shoot in American history. 
 
Donate at:  https://tgas.dojiggy.com/ng/index.cfm/a519334/reg-pages/pledge/MatthewKinney

In addition to the funds raised, this is also the largest clay shooting fundraiser in the world, and it has an incredibly unique platform that makes the event a great time for everyone involved.  There are several teams competing in the Shoot; each team consists of five people and one “6th man” from the Special Operations Community, and each has committed to raising a minimum of $50,000 for the event. Every team will also select a Special Operations military charity that they wish to represent.  The Special Forces Charitable Trust will be the recipient of the first 50% raised.  The chosen charities of the top five fundraising teams will receive 30%, 25%, 20%, 15%, and 10% of the remaining 50% respectively.
 
The individual winner and the winning team are those who raise the most money for the Special Operations Community, but that doesn’t mean that there aren’t awesome prizes for those who shoot the most clays out of 50 either!  The prizes this year can be found on the website at: http://greatamericansshoot.org/2017-prizes/ ; you should check out the Toyota Tacoma 4X4 last year’s winner took home as a Grand Prize! 
 
This year, I am proud to say that I was invited to be a "6th man" again for the 4th year on behalf of the SFCT.  I am so enthusiastic to take on this opportunity and to truly make the lives of Special Operations Forces Soldiers and their Families, who do so much for our nation and the world every day, better with this level of fundraising.  Not to mention that TGAS in California is going to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
 
Becoming a part of The Great Americans Shoot is a really incredible opportunity, so I wanted to reach out to you.  There are many ways in which you can become involved with this unique event, and each of them are very meaningful contributions.  I encourage you to visit the event sites:  http://greatamericansshoot.org/ and or contacting me at 270-871-2953 me if you have any questions. 100% of all donations go back to SFCT.  Whether you’re interested in giving support to my team’s fundraising goals or joining my team in the Shoot, I didn’t think that you would want to pass up on this opportunity, which is why I wanted to invite you personally.
 
There is a lot more information that the Special Forces Charitable Trust office can give you about The Great Americans Shoot 2017.  Please feel free to contact the Special Forces Charitable Trust office at: 860-767-1510 or [email protected] , with any questions regarding the Shoot.  I would love to talk to you more about it, because this event is going to be pretty impressive!  Thank you in advance for your support!

Sunday, October 1, 2017
9:00 AM – Noon: Three-Gun Competition to include teams from the Special Operations and Law Enforces Communities at Oak Tree Gun Club.

The Great Americans Shoot benefits the Special Forces Charitable Trust and other nonprofit organizations supporting our Great Americans, the men and women who are serving, and who have served, in United States Military Special Operations.

Year four! The Great Americans Shoot is hosted by The Special Forces Charitable Trust (SFCT) and will take place on September 30, 2017 at the Oak Tree Gun Club, an incredible and beautiful setting in the hills just north of Los Angeles, in Newhall, CA. Check out the Oak Tree Gun Club. The Great Americans Shoot is the brainchild of shoot enthusiast and philanthropist, Mike Reynolds. Over the past three years, he has created a totally unique shoot format, which yields unprecedented results. Mike brought this unique format to the SFCT to support the entire Special Operations Community and their Families. In the past three years, the shoot has raised $3.5 million dollars that have benefited eight military charities.

The pictures are from a smoke alarm call at 02:00 recently. Light smoke in a house no obvious fire found, no fire damage was found during the investigation. House was about 4,000 square feet, two story. Attic space on both ends of the house. One attic access had a one foot step down I sent one Firefighter to inspect it after I had to make sure I didn't miss anything. He stepped in before he realized there was step down and I didn't tell him about it. He stumbled and went through the drywall that was the ceiling below. Luckily the open garage door caught him. Tell your people about hazards no matter what. Light bulb moment.

Not everything is lights and sirens.


Captain Swen

      A 23 year old, 230 pound, muscular, African-American active duty (AD) Soldier in the U.S. Army sustained a high-velocity gunshot wound to his left shoulder in Paktika, Afghanistan.  The projectile penetrated anteriorly, immediately inferior to the distal 1/3d of the left clavicle and exited inferior to the left scapula.  He was treated by a first responder AD 68W Combat Medic with two packs of QuickClot Combat Gauze (Z-Medica, Wallingford, Connecticut, USA).  The gauze was packed into the wound under direct pressure and an 18g IV was placed in his contralateral upper extremity.  An infusion of 0.9% normal saline (NS) was initiated at a slow rate. He arrived at the 9 man surgical element, we bypassed EMT and just brought him straight into the OR.

                 After preoxygenation with 100% oxygen, a Sellick’s maneuver was applied to the patient’s cricoid cartilage and induction of general anesthesia was achieved with Etomidate (Amidate, Pfizer, Inc., New York, USA) followed immediately with succinylcholine (Anectine, Quelicin, suxamethonium, Pfizer Inc., New York, USA).  Direct larnygoscopy was performed, a Grade I view was obtained, and an 8.0mm endotracheal (ET) tube was inserted between the true vocal cords to a depth of 22cm at the teeth.  The ET cuff was inflated with 5mL of air and breath sounds were equal bilaterally with a positive end tidal CO2 waveform on the monitor (Propaq, ZOLL Medical, Chelmsford, Massachusetts, USA).
 
                After verification of ET tube placement, a massive amount of blood was noted on the floor.  Upon inspection, the patient had a rapid, active, arterial flow of pulsatile blood emanating from his wound.  An entire roll of gauze (Kerlix, Covidien,-Medtronic, Minnesota, USA) was placed into the wound and direct pressure was applied.  The patient was placed on the ventilator.

                The patient was found to have a partially severed left subclavian artery. 

                Succinylcholine is a widely used medication as part of the RSI technique in combat casualties.  Application of Combat Gauze to penetrating injuries has become routine for U.S. military forces.  The fasciculations caused by succinylcholine can be of sufficient intensity to dislodge the Combat Gauze and result in a rapid loss of hemostasis.   Alternatively, an actively moving patient can dislodge the clot formed by combat gauze.

                  I recommend a reinforcing combat gauze prior to patient movement, using a defasciculating dose of paralytic prior to using succinylcholine, or avoiding succinylcholine altogether if the patient has had a hemostatic dressing applied. The patient also received 4u PRBCs and 4 FFP, we didn't have TXA during surgery.

EXAMPLE PHOTO

My ATRIC class ended at 17:00 on Oct 01.  At 02:30 on Oct 02 I was on the ambulance when a we received a call for a shooting at an apartment complex.  Initially advised to stage for law enforcement, within minutes we were requested to "make scene."  Once onscene, I never thought twice about the perimeter officers and door guys with guns drawn. I wasn't concerned that the first time I heard the shooter had not been located was while I was caring for the victim.  I was not worried, because of the training I've received by the ALERRT staff during the course of Active Shooter II and ATRIC.  I trusted that my officers would watch over us as we provided indirect threat care. SWAT Officers Ellingston & Beller had placed an Israeli bandage over the abdominal entrance wound (intestine protruding), and no exit wound found, so we quickly moved him onto a backboard and into the ambulance.  The victim ultimately succumbed to his injuries At a local hospital, but because of the immediate care he received (made possible by the direct training provided ALERRT, and teamwork practiced in live scenarios), he was able to name his shooter(s).

When you're passionate about your craft, and when your craft is saving lives, you want to bring that work to as many people as possible.  To that end, we have decided to branch out geographically and within the next year are planning to open a fourth training facility in the Colorado Springs to Denver corridor.  As always, our training operations can always be brought to your location; however, since not everyone has a facility to utilize all of our offerings, we have our own dedicated to providing our full training array.
This expansion will allow us to bring these life saving trainings to more people without adding additional travel expenses for our clients.
We are huge fans of the Colorado / Wyoming area and are beyond excited to be planning and implementing this expansion.  We're hopeful all of our clients (past, present and future) along with friends and family (framily) will share our enthusiasm! 

Version 5 of the TCCC Handbook. For those who don't know say hello to MARCH/PAWS and Prolonged Field Care. Let everyone know where to get the handbook.

Best job I ever had! Dynamic hoist in the Korengal Valley for a MEDEVAC. Remember Everything above in V5 of the TCCC Handbook has come from lessons learned in combat. Some good and some bad things were done by all in order for us to make the turn around the corner with these improvements. Keep leaning forward in the foxhole and striving for perfection. However, remember when you train, push hard and train till failure. Never stop when you have gotten it right because you are not pushing hard enough and nothing goes as planned when it hits the fan. Remember to learn from the mistakes, regroup and do it again.

William H. McRaven, Chancellor of The University of Texas System and former commander of the U.S. Special Operations Command as the TexMed 2017 keynote speaker. McRaven’s address titled “Physicians in the Age of Terrorism – Stories of the Battlefield” reflects on policies resulting from terrorist events and the ramifications of a weak national security system.  What is and why TCCC was and is. The history from the conception of TCCC to now.

The Prolonged Field Care(PFC) Working Group has been working hand in hand with the US Army Institute Of Surgical Research(USAISR) and the Joint Trauma System (JTS) writing and editing new guidelines for medics and providers who may have to take care of casualties for longer than normal planning guidelines in resource constrained environments.  This could be a few hours or many days.

Before moving in to Prolonged Field Care  you should first master the basics and Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) Below are the tools and downloads from prolongedfieldcare.org for those of you who have the need to or are working in that environment.

Good knowledge to have and test your junior medics on. Every medic should know where the landmarks for Anterior Axillary Line needle thoracostomy and Mid Axillary Line Tubal/Finger Thoracostomy. You should be able to walk up to junior medics and "pop quiz" them by having them draw the safety triangle on their buddy with a marker and choose their site. (Some even use their povidone-iodine swabs to mark landmarks before the procedure.)
People accidentally tube livers, diaphragms and all. Know your landmarks!!!

If you're placing a needle, finger or tube through the chest wall, it should be lateral and in the 4th/5th ICS.

We will be giving a Level II Pistol and Bleeding Control Course to Selected LE this weekend. Dont forget to check our schedule class dates for up coming fun. Our next Pistol with TCCC-AC on day two is in late August. We look forward to seeing you all there.

This is one of the charities we have backed and participate in yearly. We will be competing again in September at the Great American Shoot to help raise money for these great men and their families. All the money donated between now and May 31 will go to the MSG Gordon MOH Memorial Fund.

Wonderful day to celebrate the 10 Year Anniversary of @thecomfortcrew for Military Kids & putting 100 comfort kits together for military kids here at Fort Hood!

November there will be a fund raising event held by The Comfort Crew. Please enjoy the video!!! That being said it is often times the kids are left home while their parents deploy. There are different types of kits available for the kids. Those kits consist of ones for deployment, reintegration after deployment, and how to deal or cope when your parent comes back injured or even the loss of a parent. We here at 911 Tactical Medicine hope to see you at the event!

November there will be a fund raising event held by The Comfort Crew. That being said it is often times the kids are left home while their parents deploy. There are different types of kits available for the kids. This week we dropped off 55 kits in the Ft Hood area to schools. Those kits consist of ones for deployment, reintegration after deployment, and how to deal or cope when your parent comes back injured or even the loss of a parent.

We will be there at the fund raising event in November and will be auctioning off a special event to help raise money to keep the kits coming for the kids. Stay tuned for more information and how you can help. We will be sharing pictures of the next days golf tourniquet and some of the events at the fund raiser. They say that Matthew Kinney and his daughter will be part of a fashion show.

The things that matter most to those who have been working in the medical field for a long time is not the money. The things that matter the most are those small things when you have touched a patient and there is the unbelievable outcome when there is little chance of survival where the patient lives to tell about it and thank you. The things that matter are those who you have trained get to come back to you and tell you about how things are going in training while going after a higher level of medical knowledge and how much you have helped them. The things that matter are when you leave students with that same knowledge after your courses comes back to tell you about a patient that should have never made it back to the hospital alive but did. An amazed Doctor who asks the Paramedics "How did you know to do that and where did you learn it?" Those are some of the real things in life for medical professionals that matter.

We here at 911 Tactical Medicine have been blessed in all accounts when it comes to the things that matter. This week it was a prior student calling to thank us on how smooth schooling was going and how much things made sense to them. Two weeks ago it was a call from another group of students who had saved a patient who was in no shape to have lived yet the correct procedures where done that saved the life. They where not 911 EMS protocol driven "Cook Book Medicine" but patient outcome driven. A month and a half ago a former student (Doctor) called from overseas thankful for the training and wanting to be able to get more, not just for him but all of his men there stuck in an austere environment.

When in class listen to the experience. Its not the book by itself but what is being said that correlates to the writing that has the experience and knowledge to back it up. What is being taught should be put in a perspective that is easy to understand where it is complex in writing broken down "Barney Style" as we like to say. At the end of the day medicine is medicine. No matter how you sling it. The only thing that changes is how you apply it in the given environment you are in at the time. The outcome becomes the things that matter.
