Marines and corpsmen participate in the Tactical Casualty Combat Care (TCCC) course, with 3d Medical Battalion, checking a dummy’s chest for wounds, Nov. 9, 2017, at Camp Foster, Okinawa, Japan. Corpsmen and Marines are tested on their casualty care knowledge in a simulation that is meant to heighten stress levels and be as realistic as possible. The TCCC course held by 3d Medical Battalion, 3d Marine Logistics Group, teaches corpsmen and Marines how to stabilize a casualty on the battlefield long enough for them to reach the next echelon of care.
