Medevac teams provided emergency care to U.S. and Coalition Forces, and transport patients by air to medical treatment facilities. Using a hoist allows medevac crews to raise and lower supplies and personnel into remote or treacherous areas where landing the aircraft is impossible. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Sgt.

    Two military personnel in multicam camouflage uniforms and helmets are loading or securing a patient on a yellow litter/stretcher near a military helicopter in an arid desert environment. The soldier on the left, whose name tape reads 'MILBURY,' is leaning over the stretcher securing straps, while the second soldier assists from the other side. Medical and tactical equipment is visible inside the helicopter cabin.
    An aerial photograph taken from inside a helicopter, showing the aircraft's shadow cast on arid desert terrain below. The shadow clearly depicts the silhouette of a helicopter with main rotor blades and tail rotor visible. The ground surface is dry, sandy, and sparsely vegetated with small desert shrubs.
    The image shows military personnel inside a helicopter, viewed from the interior looking toward the open side door. At least two soldiers in full combat gear and flight helmets are visible, with an arid, rocky landscape visible through the open door. The scene appears to depict an active military air assault or reconnaissance operation.
    A military aviator or aircrew member is seated inside what appears to be a military helicopter cockpit. The individual is wearing a flight helmet with a dark visor lowered, a microphone boom, night vision goggle mount, and multicam/OCP pattern combat uniform with flight harness straps. The person appears to be looking upward, possibly conducting pre-flight checks or scanning.
