    The image shows what appears to be a military or emergency response training exercise involving at least three personnel in tan/khaki uniforms and safety helmets. A central figure wearing a red helmet is attending to a person strapped to a stretcher or backboard, suggesting casualty handling or medical evacuation training. The setting appears to be an outdoor area near a military or industrial facility.

    PERRY, Ga. – Marines with Chemical Biological Incident Response Force, CBIRF, rescue a live simulated casualty that was trapped inside a crashed vehicle during Exercise Scarlet Response 2016 at Guardian Centers, Perry, Ga., Aug. 24, 2016. This exercise is the unit’s capstone event, testing the skills of each individual CBIRF capability with lane training and culminating with a 36-hour simulated response to a nuclear detonation. CBIRF is an active duty Marine Corps unit that, when directed, forward-deploys and/or responds with minimal warning to a chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear or high-yield explosive (CBRNE) threat or event in order to assist local, state, or federal agencies and the geographic combatant commanders in the conduct of CBRNE response or consequence management operations, providing capabilities for command and control; agent detection and identification; search, rescue, and decontamination; and emergency medical care for contaminated personnel.
