			First Aid is a [[Medic]]-class medical kit used to restore health to wounded teammates. Just toss a med kit at a teammate to heal them for 50 HP. Med kits on the ground give slow hp regen in the near vicinity. Med kits can also be used on yourself.

			==HISTORY==
			Military first aid is not a single invention, but a broad system of training, equipment, and casualty care built around keeping wounded soldiers alive until they can receive more advanced treatment. By the mid-20th century, armies commonly trained soldiers in self-aid and buddy aid, with emphasis on controlling bleeding, protecting wounds with sterile dressings, and preventing or treating shock. U.S. Army first-aid doctrine before the Vietnam era treated these skills as something every soldier might need when a medical officer or aidman was not immediately available.

			During the Vietnam War, first aid was used by all sides of the conflict. U.S., ARVN, ANZAC, VC, and PAVN forces all relied on immediate battlefield treatment before evacuation to aid stations, hospitals, or rear medical facilities. For U.S. and allied forces, medics, corpsmen, and medical aidmen stabilized casualties in the field while helicopter medical evacuation, forward hospitals, whole blood availability, and improved surgical care greatly shaped survival rates. VC and PAVN forces also maintained military medical organizations and field medical facilities, though often under more austere, mobile, and concealed conditions.
