IIRC medics carry a pistol . . . Laws of War on that is sort of complicated.

Peace of Henry Blake?  :D

This does remind me of an old episode of MASH, where Hawkeye won a Jeep from an unscrupulous sergeant in a poker game -- the sarge weasled out of it by instead giving Hawk a howitzer. Potter was not amused, precisely because the cannon would draw enemy fire.

BTW, to the OP, that is amazing work!

Not in this day and age! In the 31st century, it may be different.

Really?  Because my medics carried a 9mm which was to be used to defend patients, not take part in combat.

The fluff specifically mentions the small lasers as a self defense deterrent against pirates and looters, even mentioning some units removing them out of ethical concern.  Hence why I slapped the Comstar logo on it.  You'd have to be pretty insane to attack a med truck to begin with, and piss off Comstar on top?
