Way to go. More like him and we'd have a better world.

Your profession accumulates far more than its fair share of heroes. Though
but a lowly Service Corps, unarmed, mainly out of the front line and very
small in numbers, the Royal Army Medical Corps has more VC's than any combat
unit in any of the Armed Services can show. This despite the fact that
Cavalry Generals invariably prefer horses to either doctors or their wives.
