Not sure if this will be of much help, but the 'Howdunit' series are a great writer's reference.

Look in the main site's "Links to..." section under Resources, Military ... http://www.scriptnurse.com/wcms/index.php?reference_n2a

You'll also find references, to medical, CB and legal.

So, I'm writing a pilot for a soap opera, and of course, there's lots of action at the hospital, the police station, and in the courtroom.  Any good sources for lingo from these professions?
