Jessica Bekowitz (middle), operating room nurse, observes at Responders Support Camp Nighthawk, Indiana during Guardian Response 18 on April 19, 2018.
The Airmen are from the 81st Medical Group based out of Keesler Air Force located in Biloxi, Mississippi. The 81st Medical Group operates one of the largest Air Force medical facilities in the Air Force. Its primary mission is to maintain medical readiness for worldwide contingencies by providing quality, cost-effective health care for more than 25,000 enrollees, including almost 8,500 active-duty members.
“During this exercise I want make sure we do the same thing we do stateside in the field, with the same caliber,” said Pereira. “I’m excited to see patients and get them all fixed.”
