GRAFENWOEHR, Germany. (May 6, 2017) – A U.S. Army HH-60 Black Hawk from C Company, 2-12th Combat Aviation Brigade lands at the Grafenwoehr Health Clinic helipad on Tower Barracks, Saturday, May 6 to pick up mock casualties for the ten minute evacuation flight to the St. Marien Klinikum in Amberg, Germany, during a Multinational Trauma Life Support and Emergency Medical Evacuation (MEDEVAC) training exercise. The HH-60 is well known for its MEDEVAC role, as well as its combat search and rescue functions. The exercise was conducted in two phases, the first taking place in Grafenwoehr and built around a scenario wherein mock-injured Soldiers involved in a live-fire training accident in the adjacent Grafenwoehr Training Area (GTA) are rushed to the Grafenwoehr Health Clinic for immediate treatment and triage after an explosive device malfunctions. The mock casualties were then MEDEVAC’ed to the larger German partner medical facilities located 27 miles away in the city of Amberg.
