HOHENFELS, GERMANY \u2013 Doctors and other medical personnel participated in the training exercise Saber Junction 23, which started Sept. 6 and ended Sept. 16, in Hohenfels, Germany, testing their capability to provide NATO-equivalent Role II medical services in a simulated combat environment. The hospital provided medical coverage to the U.S. Army\u2019s 2nd Cavalry Regiment, and other participating units, along with 14 Allied and Partner nations.<\/p>\n

In a highly-specialized training event, Armenian military medics trained on loading and offloading simulated casualties with a U.S. medical evacuation helicopter.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe participation of Armenian military medics in Saber Junction fortifies medical interoperability among our allies and partners. Moreover, this exercise is one avenue of building a stronger relationship between the U.S. and Armenia and sharing medical best practices and lessons learned to prepare for future operations,\u201d said U.S. Air Force Col. James Chambers, U.S. European Command Surgeon.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Air Forces in Europe (USAFE) surgeon team, which conducted some of the training, also praised the efforts of the Armenians.<\/p>\n
