The training familiarized the Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting Marines and the first responders from the Federal Fire Department with the gear and procedures the Army uses in medical evacuation situations. “Training like this makes MCAS K-Bay (Marines) much more efficient in their jobs and also more comfortable dealing with stressful situations such as a casualty evacuation,” said Marine Sgt. Alex Blackwell, ARFF assistant station captain, a Fort Knox Ky., native. ( Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Brittney Vito/Released)
