Yep, was mostly us boomers. Back in 1975, while in JUNIOR HIGH, I was even pushed by my school into taking courses in basic emergency medical treatment, including external/internal trauma, fractures, radiation poisoning, gunshots, and childbirth -three nights a week for 12 weeks. 8th graders today would be in the fetal position in their "safe place".
I was in 4th grade when they started teaching Red cross first aid. If you stuck with it you were about first responder level by your freshman year. I am in early 50's so an og gen x'er. Man thanks for those memories. Wow.
Lol, I have about 10 years on ya. I had an advantage going into that training as I was farm raised and already knew how to treat and suture injured critters. Had already been up to my shoulder in birthing cows. I continued training later on with a local fire dept., then later as first responder while involved in LE. No regrets, has been handy.
