Recently we posted a story in the Petaluma Magazine about NATO Role 3 Multinational Medical Unit hospital team that saved the life of a Romanian Soldier at Kandahar Airfield in Afghanistan. On March 30, 2014 this soldier suffered what would be fatal injuries after being struck by an IED. The blast resulted in the death of another soldier and critically wounding four others who suffered from various injuries. What interested us about this article was a #Petaluman Lt. J.C. Trosper, aka Jaclyn Cuevas Trosper, is an intensive care unit and trauma nurse who was quoted in that article. It was her team that worked to save the life of this soldier. This week Lt. Trosper received nurse of the month award by her commanding officer.
