Care under fire
CONTINGENCY OPERATING LOCATION K1, Iraq – During a mass casualty exercise at Contingency Operating Location K1, combat medics of 12th Iraqi Army Division provide emergency medical care to a “notional” casualty, simulating wounds as part of a training scenario led by medics of 1st Advise and Assist Task Force, 1st Infantry Division, March 23, 2011. Designed to test 12th IA Div. medics’ ability to treat patients under the pressures of combat, the exercise presented realistic scenarios and stressors, such as taking enemy fire, to validate the Iraqi soldiers’ training provided by U.S. Army medics of Company C, 101st Brigade Support Battalion, 1st AATF, 1st Inf. Div.
