I claim the gomer pyle medic award

I just got back from some additional duty. Out of two places we had to transport patients to, I somehow managed to not know which one I was at with the patient.

"...... (blank) hospital!? What do you mean we're at (blank) hospital?!"

I had accidentally called in the patient report to the wrong hospital.

And yes the soldier got the care he needed. I sat with my cell phone in my lap for about five minutes in the waiting room, before I picked it up and punched in the other number again.

" This is Sgt. F...I accidently called in the wrong hospital number and I needed to let you know to disregard that last call."

"We kinda figured that's what happened." Chuckles and some laughter could be heard in the back ground.

I punched end on my cell and just sat in the waiting room for a while. It was a really long week.
