    The image shows military personnel in camouflage uniforms (consistent with US Air Force ABU pattern) attending to multiple civilians lying on military-style cots or litters. The scene appears to be a mass casualty exercise or disaster response drill taking place inside a large indoor facility, likely a hangar. Multiple 'patients' are being assessed or treated simultaneously by uniformed responders.

    Simulated trauma victims are treated at the Disaster Aeromedical Staging Facility and evacuated by members of the Air Force as part of Alaska Shield 14 here, March 31, 2014. The role players originated in Kodiak, Alaska, to exercise patient triage and movement procedures there before being flown to Anchorage for further processing. Alaska Shield 14 is an exercise that involves state, federal, military and local agencies, designed to test the response and coordination of the disaster modeled after the 1964 earthquake and subsequent tsunami that devastated much of South Centeral Alaska.
