 U.S. Navy corpsman with Marine Rotational Force Europe 18.1 put their knowledge to the test during a casualty evacuation training exercise in Norway recently. The high stress scenario involved 20 simulated casualties suffering from various injuries caused by a notional explosion. The corpsman had no prior notice of the event and needed to react quickly and effectively to treat their patients. Each casualty played a role mimicking real life symptoms based on their injury. The corpsman utilized equipment such as tourniquets, gauze and stretchers to treat and move the patients as they would in an actual casualty evacuation. Role players were moved from the danger zone to a safer location and the corpsman received an evaluation on their performance. This test allowed the corpsman to assess their strengths and weaknesses to improve training for future events. Reporting from Varna Skeris in Norway, I'm Corporal Gloria Lepko.
