Don't know how far away from the Houston area you are, but Cypress Creek EMS puts on a great Tac Med class. Most of their instructors have been to CONTOMS and are all very knowledgable. Check out their website for more info.

Thanks for the comment! I wanted to get something that meant a lot to me and the department. But not the typical fire department tattoo. I had to be original. Would love to see your tattoos. I'm gonna be getting another one soon.
