Reminds me of the helicopter evacuations from the Korean war (or at least the Korean war as dramatized in M*A*S*H)

Thank god this man had a heart attack within 50 ft of the railway track!

Well if you weren't claustrophobic before... ! As much as those things were shaking going down those tracks, I'm surprised anyone survived the ride, or maybe they were only for transporting the recently deceased?

If you are in enough pain with any hope of surviving you don't care how you get to a medico you just want to get there

True enough! I guess my position was if that specific mode of transport killed anyone as opposed to surviving a more standard mode. But you're right, I guess I'd take anything I could if it was a hope of surviving my injuries.
