Ft Leonard Wood many years ago I was a 1LT with AOD duty one night at the hospital. Had a drill shot through the hip that bled out on the course. Apparently a gun malfunctioned and they unlocked it to clear it and let the bolt slam forward on a live round. I had no idea what I was doing but had to go through the process of an emergent medical retirement to get his widow max benefits prior to them pronouncing him and had to talk to the widow about organ donation. Was pretty pissed they had me doing that in the middle of the night instead of someone trained to do it, but I guess that's the Army.
IF it's any consolation, due to the GWOT they've gotten better at casualty notification and assistance. They now run monthly training and a duty roster for 04s and 05s, along with full time AG folks. I did my last one in 2004 before I retired and they pretty much had the system down, I received quite a bit of help from folks that knew ropes.
Right before I retired we were working to develop a similar system for the army civilian employees as there's no casualty assistance program in place on the civilian side.
