PA in SF?

Post by m6medic1 »

Hello, I am trying to find out if 65d's ( physicians assistants) can serve in SF units. I know that they can be in a Ranger unit, but i have not heard anything about SF. If so would they be in a team, or are 18d's the only SF medical soldier( not saying that an 18D should be underestimated.) Also, if PA's can be in SF do they undergo any additional training?
Thanks and sorry if I am violating any rules by asking this.

There are only 18D's on teams but there are PA's in group.

PAs are assigned at battalion level and higher.
WE NEED MORE RANGERS!
