    A group of military personnel in camouflage uniforms are gathered in an open field while a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter hovers overhead. The soldiers appear to be conducting a medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) exercise or operation, with what appears to be a casualty on a litter/stretcher on the ground. The overcast sky and dry grassland terrain suggest a training environment, likely in a temperate region during late autumn or winter.

    Medics with Company C., 101st Brigade Support Battalion, 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 1st Infantry Division, practice using various hoists to lift casualties out of areas where helicopters cannot safely land during medical evacuation training at Fort Riley, Kan. March 8. The medics, with the support of the 2nd General Support Aviation Battalion, 1st Combat Aviation Brigade, 1st Inf. Div., used both a “Skedco Sked” basic rescue system and a rescue seat to evacuate simulated patients as the helicopter hovered about 50 feet off the ground. (Staff Sgt. Warren W.
