      usually NSmen who serve their NS with SCDF as an ambulance medic will most definately encounter maternity cases. Usually the medic will just assist the paramedic when it comes to delivery so your friend is not joking at all.

      Usually when you're in the medic course after you pop from recruit, they will teach you the basics & you've got to ask if you wanna know more & I've mentioned, medics are mainly to assist the paramedics. Usually, its the pes A & B who will be more like to be medics
