Combat medicine will be discussed in depth. The purpose of this post is to help fanfic writers develop their medic characters. Some Disclaimers and Warnings before we get started: I’m also going to add some other people’s tags, because I think they also really add to this. I really, really appreciate you reaching out! Thank you. This mindset is SO important to understand when writing disabled military characters like clones. Consequently, many choose not to disclose any type of disability to ANYONE, thereby not gaining access to potential accommodations that might contribute to successful life outside the military. Once out of the military, veterans with disabilities overwhelmingly express concern around the stigma associated with mental health impairments, PTSD, and TBI.

Your leaders, subordinates, and peers in the military are conditioned to feel this way.

Most people in the military genuinely feel this way. High performance in your occupation is mandatory. The ability to work efficiently and effectively is your only value in this culture. Like you know (but I’ll just explain for the benefit of those reading) all militaries are ableist by their very nature. That’s great! But like I mentioned in the tags of that post, I only find it a bit upsetting when clone content creators on here tout realism and acceptance when their clones are written like civvie college kids with civvie problems who just happen to wear armor and hold guns. When it comes down to it, everyone wants to see themselves in their favorite characters, and there’s no exception to this in the clone wars fandom. People should write what they want to write.

I’m not here to police people’s writing or art. Ahhh 💕💕💕 You are so welcome! I’ve been holding my tongue on this subject a long time, so it became more involved than I was planning 😂 And that’s the number one reason I was drawn to write and draw for TCW as well! Because I share a similar culture, I deeply, genuinely relate to clones and their struggles.
