Join us as we welcome Dr. Donnelly Wilkes, a family physician and former Navy doctor whose story takes us from medical school halls to Fallujah's intense battlegrounds. Listen in as Dr. Wilkes recounts how the tragic events of 9/11 pivoted his career from a peaceful Navy service to the adrenaline-charged life of combat medicine alongside the Marines. His vivid narrative includes the grueling preparation for battlefield medicine, his on-the-ground decisions, and the powerful motivations behind his memoir, "Code Red Fallujah." Dr. Wilkes's personal journey offers a raw glimpse into the heart of military medical service and the indelible lessons that transcend the chaos of war. In this heartfelt episode, we explore the psychological and emotional landscapes shaped by military deployment. Hear about the profound experiences that forever altered Dr. Wilkes's medical practice and personal life, from treating the first Marine killed in action near Fallujah to the complex readjustment to civilian life. Dr. Wilkes shares how moments of stillness and empathetic connections with patients have enriched his role as a physician. He also imparts wisdom for medical professionals gearing up for future service, underlining the importance of mentorship and strategic foresight in combat medicine. Tune in for a conversation that bridges the front lines of military service with the compassionate care of family medicine. Chapters: (00:04) Combat Medicine in Fallujah (08:31) Fallujah Field Medical Station Experiences (24:22) Military Deployment Impact on Medical Practice Chapter Summaries: (00:04) Combat Medicine in Fallujah Dr. Donnelly Wilkes shares his journey from medical school to deployment in Fallujah, exploring the impact of 9/11 and military medicine. (08:31) Fallujah Field Medical Station Experiences Nature's intense realities at a field medical aid station near Fallujah, including a powerful moment of prayer and treating a Marine with a severe head wound. (24:22) Military Deployment Impact on Medical Practice Military deployment's impact on medical practice and personal life, including stillness, listening skills, and readjustment to civilian life. Take Home Messages: **The Unpredictable Path of Military Medicine**: The tragic events of 9/11 can pivot the career trajectory of medical professionals in unexpected ways. This episode highlights how one doctor's path shifted from the prospect of peaceful Navy service to the intense realities of combat medicine on the battlefields of Fallujah. **Rigorous Preparation for Battlefield Medicine**: The transition from medical school to serving as a physician in a combat zone requires extensive and specialized training. From officer training and combat casualty care courses to field exercises and trauma rotations, military doctors must be equipped with a unique set of skills to make life-saving decisions under the pressure of war. **The Emotional Toll of Combat on Medical Personnel**: Experiencing the front lines of battle has a profound psychological and emotional impact on medical personnel. Dealing with casualties and the loss of life in a warzone requires not only medical expertise but also immense mental resilience and the ability to cope with high-stress situations. **Post-Deployment Challenges and Growth**: Returning to civilian life after serving in a combat zone presents its own set of challenges, including readjusting to a different pace of life and dealing with the after-effects of constant vigilance and exposure to trauma. However, these experiences can also result in personal growth, leading to improved empathy and patient care practices. **Mentorship and Foresight in Military Medicine**: For medical professionals considering or preparing for military service, seeking mentorship and learning from those with firsthand combat experience is invaluable. Strategic foresight, such as choosing between stationary or mobile medical units, is also critical for effectively managing medical services in potential future conflicts.

In this interview with Charles Morgan Evans, historian, founding curator of the Hiller Aviation Museum, and author of two books, War of the Aeronauts: A History of Ballooning in the Civil War and Helicopter Heroine—Valerie Andre: Surgeon, Pioneer Rescue Pilot, and Her Courage Under Fire, we talk about the incredible feats of a woman who flew almost 500 combat missions in Indochina and Algeria in the 1950s-1960, at the same time she was treating traumatic head injuries in battlefield hospitals as a neurosurgeon. Evans shares with us how a photo at Hiller museum piqued his interest in Andre and led him to preserve her story for an English-speaking audience, as well as providing the context and characters who contributed along her journey. Andre went on to be highly decorated for her accomplishments and contributions to aerial combat rescue and combat medicine, and became the first female General in the French Army. She celebrated her 101st birthday in April 2023. Thanks so much for listening!

On today's show we remember and honor the combat veteran, hip hop artist Doc Todd, whose life was cut short after a heart attack last month. George Michael Todd went by “Mik” but he was known to the rap world as “Doc Todd”. (Doc, a nickname for all Navy Corpsman, who are the first to respond to Marines and soldiers injured on the battlefield.)He was a big bear of a guy, who instantly made you feel good. Our friendship lasted several years, and over the course of several interviews he shared the combat and post military experiences that shaped his acclaimed album “Combat Medicine”. Doc was the kind of guy I knew I could ask anything and get a real answer. In one of our interviews, we talked about how his service-related injuries sent him down the dark road to addiction … something he shared openly on his first hit single, “Not Alone”.IN one interview from 2019 he talked more about his single, “Not Alone” and how it drew interest from Diet Coke who made him a central part of their promotional campaign focused on mental health.Doc Todd's 2019 album Strange Pictures took another angle at improving our collective mental health though art, photography and music. But rather than focusing on just those struggling, his follow up hit single “Feels Good” was a summer anthem, that reminded vets and non-vets alike, to seek joy in our daily lives. Doc Todd shared his talents and his struggles. He made people smile, groove and his gifted soul touched millions.RIP my brother.Find Doc Todd's music on YouTube and everywhere you get music.https://www.youtube.com/@doctodd9285/videosTo reach Phil Briggs, Host, CBS Eye on Veterans: phil@connectingvets.comFollow on Twitter:@philbriggsVet @eyeonveteransSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Doc Todd is a combat veteran who proudly served our country as a Fleet Marine Force Corpsman (combat medic) in the United States Navy. Since Doc's honorable discharge in 2009, it's been seven years of life and civilian transition for him, including the ups and downs experienced by many young veterans who have dealt with the hard costs of war. Now, Doc has had enough… enough with the pain, enough with not fitting in, enough with the sorrow and anger of having another friend take his life. So in 2017, Doc took a leap of faith leaving a budding career in financial management to pursue a mission focused on impacting veterans' lives through music, just as he did eight years ago under the blazing Afghanistan sun, In June, Doc will debut his forthcoming hip-hop album, Combat Medicine – a follow-up to the album he released in 2009 about his emotions leading up to deployment. Combat Medicine is exactly what it sounds like – a no-holds-bar look into military life and veteran transition. His mission is simple – show veterans they're not alone and save lives. His memoir, also titled Combat Medicine, is set to launch later this year.

Dr. Jeff Cain has led an interesting military career to say the least, as both an Infantryman and a doctor, spanning from the period of the first Gulf War into the Global War on Terrorism. Dr. Cain began his career at West Point, choosing Infantry as his branch upon graduation. Following time with the Berlin Brigade in Germany during the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Cain made his way to 3rd Ranger Battalion where he would serve - along with time at Regimental Headquarters - until he made the decision to go to medical school through the Uniformed Services medical school program. Suffice to say, Cain's time serving in special operations left an indelible mark on him, so much so that his intent upon finishing medical school was to go back and serve as a doctor in SOF. Which is exactly what he did, becoming the 1st Ranger Battalion physician, and completing two OEF rotations and one OIF rotation with multiple JSOTFs. Cain even ended up serving as the lead medical planner for the Jessica Lynch rescue, going in with the recovery force and remaining on the ground to secure other remains during exfil. Today Dr. Cain still practices medicine while focusing on productive methods for treating post-traumatic stress, sustaining a valuable connection between medicine and the veteran and military communities.

When Doc Todd left the Navy after spending three years as a corpsman, he didn’t have any transition assistance or training. He lost friends. He lost Marines. After separating from the military, he saw even more of his Marines take their own lives through substance abuse and suicide. It’s wasn’t the ending he had expected when he joined. He joined the Navy in 2007 after spending four years in sales and restaurant jobs. He wanted to experience some meaningful growth in his life and be part of something bigger than himself. That – to him – meant joining the U.S. Navy. Doc ended up spending the bulk of his time with Marines in “America’s Battalion,” 2nd Battalion 8th Marines. In 2009, he and his Marines were in Afghanistan in Operation Khanjar, the largest aerial insertion of Marine troops since the Vietnam War. Though he experienced his own struggles upon leaving the military, he didn’t turn to music as a means of coping. He actually waited until he had the strength to better express himself instead. Doc Todd in the studio. “Honestly, from an artistic perspective, I didn’t know who I was yet. Or who I was becoming,” Doc says. “I found it very difficult to make a statement musically when I didn’t know what to say.” When Doc picked himself up was when he was finally able to realize his purpose was helping others. Like a true corpsman, he never wanted to stop looking out for others. He saw too many overdoses, too many suicides. He decides to enter the veteran’s space, but to do it in his own way. In June 2017, his album Combat Medicine dropped to widespread acclaim and national praise, not to mention a flood of personal stories from those who listened to it and felt the message. Doc is currently working on a release titled “The Shadow Game EP,” on Runaway Train Records. Mandatory Fun guest: Doc Todd is combat veteran who proudly served our country as a Fleet Marine Force Corpsman (combat medic) in the United States Navy. Since Doc’s honorable discharge in 2009, Doc moved to Atlanta and worked at restaurants and a premier hospital, while he pursed his college education on the G.I. Bill. Doc graduated from Georgia State University magna cum laude with an undergraduate degree in studying Economics and Public Policy in 2014. He then joined Northwestern Mutual where he began to build a financial management practice, before pursuing his music. Doc resides in Atlanta with his wife Abby, two young daughters Savannah and Audrey, and dog Memphis, who Doc rescued shortly after coming home from war. 2017’s Combat Medicine Doc Todd’s Website Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Spotify Pandora Apple Music Amazon

Episode 13 features combat veteran and musician Doc Todd. His recent album called “Combat Medicine” is dedicated to “personal healing and restoration.” On his website at www.therealdoctodd.com, he describes how the album is “intended to give veterans a voice and inform everyday Americans about the real struggles facing our former service members as they transition into their civilian lives.” He seeks to “directly impact the veteran suicide, mental health, and personal transition spaces.” His effort has not gone unnoticed as CNN, the VA, National Public Radio, and numerous local news affiliates regularly ask him to speak, perform, and contribute to the national dialogue about mental health and related services for veterans. During this Episode of the Get Up Nation Podcast, he shares his insights into his battle with addiction, his experiences coping with the effects of combat as a corpsman deployed to Afghanistan during the Global War on Terror, mental health challenges veterans face, perceived gaps in the military healthcare and VA systems, and personal accountability when it comes to mental health and medical healthcare following military service.

Since Doc’s honorable discharge in 2009, it’s been seven years of life and civilian transition for him, including the ups and downs experienced by many young veterans who have dealt with the hard costs of war. Now, Doc has had enough… enough with the pain, enough with not fitting in, enough with the sorrow and anger of having another friend take his life. So in 2017, Doc took a leap of faith leaving a budding career in financial management to pursue a mission focused on impacting veterans’ lives through music, just as he did eight years ago under the blazing Afghanistan sun, In June, Doc will debut his forthcoming hip-hop album, Combat Medicine – a follow-up to the album he released in 2009 about his emotions leading up to deployment. Combat Medicine is exactly what it sounds like – a no-holds- bar look into military life and veteran transition. His mission is simple – show veterans they’re not alone and save lives. His memoir, also titled Combat Medicine, is set to launch later this year.
