    TF Lobos medevac crews conduct rescue hoist training with Germans

    Staff Sgt. Travis Brown, a flight medic assigned to Company C, Task Force Lobos, 1st Air Cavalry Brigade, 1st Cavalry Division, and a German soldier assigned to an extrication team lower to the ground with an aircraft hoist while latched on to a jungle penetrator during rescue hoist training July 16. The purpose of the training was to familiarize the extrication team with usage of the aircraft hoist, since insertion via the hoist can often times be the only option into certain austere locations within the mountainous and rugged terrain of Afghanistan. The training was a continuation of the budding partnership between the 1st ACB and the German military contingent in Regional Command North.
