I see you are Canadian. When you say "our medics," do you mean the Canadian Army?

Certainly... Our Dr. accompanied us into the field, he's the battalion surgeon.

Also during the Normandy landings the medical staff came ashore immediately.

By the way, I've had enough conjecture. I was relating the story of a firearm as I got it from the auction house. Long past. None of it matters to me. That's where the pistol came from, how he got it doesn't matter. Here's the provenance I recorded with this beauty... I have lots more pics but this should do.
