A paratrooper assigned to the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, decontaminates a soldier exposed to hazardous chemicals while wearing the Joint Service Lightweight Integrated Suit Technology (JSLIST) during testing for the Expert Field Medical Badge on Fort Bragg, N.C., on May 4. The EFMB is a highly recognized badge in the Army, because of the degree of difficulty in passing the test. The testing consists of basic Soldier skills such as land navigation, an Army physical fitness test, and 12-mile road march, but also includes treating different injuries and overcoming medical situations that medics could encounter on the battlefield. The EFMB testing was from April 29 thru May 4. Nearly 200 candidates from Fort Bragg and other Army installations began the testing, but less than 50 earned the badge this year.
