At lot of these points might be pretty obvious.
It's great when you radio to me at 0300 because someone has got a “cut their face” but I don't know if that means he needs sutures, a shaving profile or a medical evacuation.
You should be able to manipulate, at least, a fire team element. In today's asymmetrically world, a ground commander won't have 100% visibility of the battlefield. You should have the knowledge and know-how to direct those around you should you need defense and know what weapons systems they have, how effective they are and how to employ them to their full potential.
Don't be a speed bump on your unit's road to success. You're a really important control to minimizing risks in a lot of situations for leaders when they fill out their CRM.
Various Medical Advice
SOAP Notes: If you haven't written hundreds of them then you aren't any good at writing them. Also, nothing infuriates me more than when a junior medic dumps a patient off at my doorstep without a written or verbal hand off and I have to guess what treatments he received.
Verbal hand-off: The mnemonic I use is VIETNAM. Vitals, injuries sustained, estimated blood loss, treatments given, name of patient, allergies, medications administered. There's plenty out there. Use what you like.
Rapid Neruo Exam. Master this shit.
Glasgow Coma Scale: The battlefield version of the rapid neuro exam.
Rules of 10s, Parkland Burn Formula, etc. There are a bunch of these fluid resuscitation formulas floating around. Rule of 10s is easiest to remember. If you are doing long term fluid resuscitation, consult your PA.
Sports Medicine. Simply knowing how to identify a sprain/strain over a more serious injury in the field saves everyone a lot of time. Taping ankles and shoulders will also make you a favorite, there are instructional videos on youtube.
Dietary considerations. There's plenty of reading to be done here. Harvard has a good guide to dietary science. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004INHD00
