Expert Field Medical Badge soldiers prepare themselves in the aid tent before attempting Combat Testing Lane number two, Oct. 27, 2015 at the Medical Skills Training Center on Fort Bragg, N.C. Out of 42 total testable tasks in the entire EFMB Combat Testing Lane portion, the second Combat Testing Lane holds 20 of those. CTL 2 begins with disassembling, reassembling and completing a function check on an M4A1 rifle and continues with the candidate moving down the lane immersed in a tactical situation. From this point, the candidate does three-to-five second rushes toward the casualty and doing medical call outs to check the status of the casualty from a distance. Once they’ve made their way to the casualty is when they perform the first tactical combat casualty care, then comes an evacuation drill complete with tactical carries, a 9-line medical evacuation call and a casualty collection point.
