USAF 7 Summits Team Wrap-Up: ” As a reserve pararescueman and a physician assistant medical student at Emory University, Gibson, the only enlisted climber, acted as the USAF 7 Summit Team’s medic during the two month-long climb, and according to the USAF 7 Summit Team leader, Maj. Rob Marshal, he, “quickly earned a reputation as the go-to medic for everybody within earshot, especially at the higher camps where medical support is much harder to come by. In addition to treating cuts and abrasions, ‘Gibby’ has administered potentially life-saving treatments to climbers suffering symptoms of HAPE and HACE. This no doubt establishes some kind of record for the highest altitude work ever done by a USAF PJ. We are super proud to have him on the team!”
