Day Two

My second day was a little more exciting than the first: I started on my project! I pulled out case files for airplane fatalities in New Hampshire and set to reviewing them. In some cases, I was only given a date and location for an airplane crash site. I learned how to go through the ledger of autopsied cases and use their handy card system to gather case numbers. While the actual project is interesting, I am looking forward to becoming acquainted with everyone in the office and hopefully deciding if this is the right career for me. Exciting stuff! Check back later for more news. 

P.S. To answer Marie's question, I have learned new vocabulary that includes: 

COD: cause of death

MBII: multiple blunt impact injuries

DB: dead body

Thanks!
