Markland

 

Lieutenant Markland is an NCR army doctor stationed at Bitter Springs in 2281.

BackgroundEdit

Markland is the medical officer and field medic at Bitter Springs. While he has extensive medical knowledge and field first aid (treating trench foot, making a tourniquet, etc.), he was not trained to treat the psychological trauma from which many of the refugees suffer.

Notable quotesEdit
