Soldiers assigned to the 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team “Ironhorse,” 1st Cavalry Division practice rescue techniques in Belton Lake during weekly refresher training while tasked as lifeguards for Belton Lake Outdoor Recreation Area, May 28, at Fort Hood, Texas. “The hardest part (of training) was probably the deep water back boarding,” said Spc. Rodolfo Echeverria, a combat medic assigned to Headquarters and Headquarters Company of the of the 91st Brigade Engineer Battalion “Saber,” of the Ironhorse Brigade. “It’s as if a patient suffered a spinal injury in the water and you have to go in there and put them on a backboard while in the water. It’s a pretty tough task.”
