    Petty Officer 2nd Class Gabriel Besa, Navy hospital corpsman with Special Purpose Marine Air Ground Task Force South, and a native of Pearland, Texas, is currently serving aboard the future amphibious assault ship USS America (LHA 6). Besa taught a combat lifesaver course to Marines with the SPMAGTF in preparation for their upcoming bi-lateral training in Brazil. The Marines were tested on advanced medical techniques in order to become certified combat lifesavers for the SPMAGTF. The CLS class was given to prepare the Marines for their bi-lateral training in Brazil. Bi-lateral training with our partners develops, maintains and strengthens the relationships that facilitate the cooperation needed in the event of a crisis requiring a multinational effort. SPMAGTF-South is currently embarked aboard America on her maiden transit, “America Visits the Americas”. (U.S. Marine Corps Photo by Cpl. Donald Holbert/ Released)
