Back to the war zone for a third time in what will be 5 years by the time this tour is over.

I do know when and where, but I will leave it at that for now.

A Few More Hoist Pics

Arriving on the Scene

I spent about half my day today doing hoist MEDEVAC operations with another unit. They would call in a 9-line MEDEVAC over the radio, and we would respond. Depending on the patient scenario, I would either hoist in and evacuate the patient via SKEDCO and JP, or we would evacuate them via litter. It turned out to be some really good training for everyone involved, including my Crew Chief who received some extra training by giving IVs to the “patients” under my instruction.

I thought I would share a few more pictures from today as well, so you’ll find them after the jump.
