How to Wake Up Comatose Marines in Aliens: Dark Descent

In Aliens: Dark Descent, you can wake up comatose marines using the Reanimator used by Medic class marines. First of all, you must unlock the Medic class by leveling up a Rookie marine to level 3. Since class selection is based on RNG, moving a Rookie to a Medic class may be challenging. 

Assuming you managed to get a Medic class marine in your team, your next objective must be unlocking the Reanimator Kit upgrade using thirty materials. Granted, you have the said amount of materials, head to the Barracks section, and select the Medic. 

Once that is done, select the Upgrades option, navigate to the Reanimator Kit upgrade, and unlock it using the said materials. With the Medic and the Reanimator Kit upgrade unlocked, you are ready to wake up any comatose marine other than the Medic itself when the need arises.
