<p>Story by Lori Newman, Joint Base San Antonio.<br><br>"About 70 percent of the decisions made in a hospital are based on laboratory data, explained Lt. Cmdr. Trent Freeman, director of the Army and Navy Medical Laboratory Technician Program at the Medical<br>Education and Training Campus. “That’s significant; that tells you the importance of the trade, the skill and the education our students are receiving.
