Darnall Army Medical Center, Fort Hood, Texas, performs a knee operation alongside Senegalese medical personnel during MEDRETE 18-1, Feb. 6, 2018, at Hospital Militaire De Ouakam, Dakar, Senegal. MEDRETE is a combined effort between the Senegalese government, U.S. Army Africa, and the Vermont National Guard. MEDRETE 18-1 is the first in a series of medical readiness training exercises that U.S. Army Africa is scheduled to facilitate within various countries in Africa, and serves as an opportunity for the partnered militaries to hone and strengthen their general surgery and trauma skills while reinforcing the partnership between the countries. The mutually beneficial exercise brings together Senegalese military and U.S. Army medical professionals to foster cooperation while conducting medical specific tasks. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt.
