    Military personnel in desert camouflage uniforms observe a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter marked with a Red Cross symbol hovering overhead, with a figure being hoisted on a cable beneath it. The scene appears to be a medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) training exercise or operation taking place in an arid, flat terrain. Multiple soldiers from what appear to be different national forces are present, watching the hoist operation.

    German soldiers observe U.S. Army Sgt. Jorge Vasquez, a medic with Company C, 1st General Support Aviation Battalion, 111th Aviation Regiment, being lowered in a rescue seat attached to the hoist of an HH-60M Black Hawk helicopter during medevac and hoist training near Erbil, Iraq, Aug. 20, 2016. This training was provided to German, Dutch and Finnish soldiers in order to familiarize Coalition partners with U.S. Army medevac procedures and equipment. The 111th is currently deployed in support of Combined Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve. (U.S. Army Photo by Staff Sgt. Peter J. Berardi)
