I think a couple of the other guys have mentioned it, but on hospital rotations you can get the opportunity to participate in some pretty odd procedures(from a combat medic POV). Depending on your motivation, knowledge and the willingness of the MD to teach, if you're in the right place at the right time you can easily find yourself scrubbed in on an interesting case. Since they are "odd" experiences guys tell their buddies about it and I can see where it can go from "I assisted on this case" to "I know a guy who was trained to do X".
