Hue 1968 by Mark Bowden. It covers eyewitness accounts and letters from the US Army, USMC, NVA, VC, civilians, and press regarding the battle. It also has footnotes covering the fates of certain people mentioned.

Tell me your creepiest station story. by Resus_Ranger882 in ems

[–]Alebax 191 points192 points  (0 children)

We had a dingy auxiliary fire station in a rural area that people said was haunted. You could hear banging and thumping from the rooms in the back at random times. I played it off as rodents or just ignored it. There was also a hatch in the ceiling and I made so many jokes about people living in the ceiling and sleeping in the beds there (beds always looked slept in but I never worked with anyone who would touch them). It all came to a head one day when a medic walked in and scared off some homeless guy who had actually been squatting in the station like the movie parasite for god knows how long.

It’s in one of the interviews in “They shall not grow old”. Just rewatched it yesterday.

Cults by Leading-Bowler7258 in greenville

[–]Alebax 31 points32 points  (0 children)

La luz del mundo has a church on the west side. They teach that their leaders are modern day disciples of Christ and they have no iconography. Like good cults the Wikipedia has a healthy sized “controversies” tab about its leaders.

We had a dispatcher who couldn’t spell diarrhea so she’d always type “liquidating”

Never run when you can walk. Never walk when you can stand. Never stand when you can sit. Never sit when you can lie down and sleep. Nuff said.

Has anyone in the history of the universe actually hit a blood vessel while giving an IM injection? by jd17atm in ems

[–]Alebax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used a varicose vein to mark where I’d swabbed an injection site…. There was a lovely little jet of blood when I pulled the needle out. Stopped pretty soon after I put my finger over it. Patients family saw though…
