At the 2018 Association of the United States Army Medical Symposium (MEDAUSA) on June 26-27, in San Antonio, Texas, Lt. Gen. Nadja Y. West, Army Surgeon General and commanding general, Army Medical Command, discusses a photo of a soldier being medically evacuated and holding the hand of another injured Soldier for comfort. “It grabbed me, it shows a soldier getting comfort from his fellow wounded soldier.” said West. This photo is the clearest way for West to explain what Army Medicine does for the Army and emphasizes that we are part of the operation and not just support.
