Can an army medic start an iv?
Yes the can, some non medic soldiers also get training on starting iv's by going through the combat life savers course. Since the reorganisation of Army MOS structure circa 2001 - 2002, the MOS of Combat Medic has been greatly expanded, and also covers a lot of personnel who previously wouldn't have been classed as combat medics under the old structure (91B was the MOS for a Combat Medic previously - now it's 68W). With the reorganisation, new requirements were put in place for Combat Medics, one of which was that a Combat Medic should hold a basic EMT licence (national registry).
What was the major weakness of the Army of the James in 1864?
The Union's Army of the James was given a key task by General US Grant in 1864. As part of Grant's Overland campaign, the Army of the James was to land on the Virginia coast and destroy Southern railroads and capture either Petersburg or Richmond. The leadership of this army was the key weakness. General Butler had been a political appointee and the two major divisions of his army were USMA engineers but had no real leadership experience.
Is lieutenant higher than sergeant major of the marine corps?
Yes. 100%. However, in practicality, as a Marine I can tell you that it isn't that cut and dry lol. In official capacities, any officer is superior to any enlisted personnel. But you have to understand the rank of Sergeant Major. It is an E-9, the highest possible rank, same as another rank, Master Gunnery Sergeant. Here's the difference, after Master Sergeant (E8), you get the choice to either continue as a master of your profession (Master Gunnery Sergeant) or, the more political route as a leader of troops and advisor to the commander of the battalion (Sergeant Major). Thus, the Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps is the highest enlisted rank, above that of a regular Sergeant Major, and his job is to make sure the enlisted below him carry out the orders of the Commandant. His job is to execute policy changes, travel to bases and speak to the troops, etc. But remember I said there's a difference? What I mean is this... a Marine officer leaves school and arrives at their unit as a second Lieutenant (butterbar, lol) and automatically picks up first Lieutenant six months later (silver bar). Bottom line, Lieutenant -- less than two years if they have a silver bar. Sergeant Major -- 20+ years (you can retire after 20 so now they're doing it for the love). A Lieutenant trying to "pull rank" on a Sergeant Major in a disrespectful way wouldn't be advised. Case in point, I've seen a Master Gunnery Sergeant walk past a 2nd Lt. without saluting (probably didn't see him or was doing something). Now, according to rules and traditions, he's required to salute. So, the Lieutenant, in a rude and demeaning way, asked the Master Gunnery Sergeant why he didn't salute him and the Masters Guns without hesitation told him to "climb the rockers on my collar before you speak to me *expletive*". Ouch. He's not technically allowed to do that, but what do you expect when you've been in less than six months and get smart with someone who can retire today. Bottom line, the Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps will salute a Lieutenant because it's required and proper, but no Lieutenant would try to throw their weight around or get mouthy with the Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps, nor should they.

Can a master sergeant take over first sergeant if he leaves?
When a First Sergeant leaves, it'll either be because they've been relieved of duty, or are about to be promoted to Sergeant Major. Who replaces the First Sergeant depends on the availability. It may be a Master Sergeant transferred from a staff position, or it may be a Sergeant First Class who is about to be promoted to E-8. You won't find Master Sergeants in line companies - Master Sergeants are found in staff positions.
What do the tech grades on discharge papers mean?
The "T-5" on your uncle's discharge papers means that at the time of his discharge from the Army, he was a Technician 5th Grade. The Technical Grades were used by the Army from 1942 to 1948. It was an attempt by the Army to recognize technical skills with an advancement in grade/rank, & pay. Your uncle's rank chevron would of been that of a corporal, but with a "T" beneath the chevron. A "T-4" would of been a sergeant, but with a "T" beneath the chevron. A "T-3" would of been a staff sergeant, but with the "T" above the "rocker" of the chevron. Finally, there was a "Technical Sergeant," which had no "T" on the chevron at all. Richard V. Horrell
