    A military medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) helicopter, identifiable by the Red Cross markings on its fuselage, is photographed from below while in flight against a clear blue sky. The image appears to capture a hoist rescue or extraction operation, with a person suspended below the aircraft on a cable. The photo is taken at a low angle looking upward, with rotor blur visible indicating active flight.

    A German soldier is hoisted toward a hovering HH-60M Black Hawk helicopter, from 1st General Support Aviation Battalion, 111th Aviation Regiment, while strapped to a rescue seat 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)
