Best would probable be to write "Medical orderly with the rank of lance corporal (private first class)"
Below a sample of a (Australian) lance corporal working for a Health Support Battalion - seems to me to be a medical orderly:
An Indonesian nurse embraces Lance Corporal Heidi Turnbull from the 1st Health Support Battalion (Sydney) to say thank you for the efforts of all the ANZAC medical staff as the Infectious Diseases Ward is handed back to the Banda Aceh Public Hospital.
