    A group of military personnel in U.S. Navy digital camouflage uniforms (NWU Type III) are gathered in what appears to be a medical bay aboard a naval vessel. They are surrounding a Stryker hospital gurney with a patient or mannequin covered by a blue drape, suggesting a medical training exercise or patient care scenario. The setting includes medical monitoring equipment, supply carts, and overhead fluorescent lighting consistent with a shipboard medical facility.

    For the first time ever, the Military Sealift Command hospital ship USNS Mercy’s (T-AH 19) Medical Treatment Facility (MTF) used its trauma simulation center to host and support Fleet Surgical Team One for team training!

    The training is a milestone for the MTF who has been working toward collaborating with Fleet medical assets on the waterfront to provide them with an afloat platform for realistic, high-fidelity training scenarios.

    The simulation center, used extensively during Pacific Partnership 2018 to train partner and host nation medical personnel, is a new capability for the MTF and offers capability to the San Diego Navy community as a way to maintain operational medical readiness.
