They wouldn't be great combatants, but the Special Forces super-medic would have Small Arms (Rifle) 4, Autogun 1, and (assuming they took it as a background skill) Unarmed Martial Arts 5.

Yes. That is possible and
"The Doctor" pregen I created actually has a higher Medical:
Surgery skill but is pretty useless in combat - Medical School, 2 Medical doctor civilian terms and 2 Medical Officer terms all assisted with that but he's an extreme case of the "non-combatant" medic that needs to be protected by the group as an invaluable asset or as a "hand-wave" resource.
