    U.S. Army soldiers in ACU (Army Combat Uniform) are carrying a person on a litter/stretcher away from a military vehicle, likely a HMMWV (Humvee). A second individual is visible stepping out of the rear of the vehicle. The scene appears to take place at a forward operating base or military compound in an arid environment.

    Members of the 934th Forward Surgical Team unload a patient from the back of a field litter ambulance at Forward Operating Base Sharana recently. The 934th FST is a team of Army and Air Force medical providers who treat coalition force and Afghan casualties from the battlefield and prepare them for a higher level of care. The goal of the unit is to cut down the mortality rate of battlefield injuries by ensuring all patients see a medical provider within one hour of their time of injury.
