    Military personnel in desert camouflage uniforms and black helmets are conducting a medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) training exercise, attending to a simulated casualty on a rocky, arid terrain. A Bell UH-1Y Venom (or similar variant) military helicopter is visible on the ground in the background, suggesting a helicopter casualty evacuation (CASEVAC) drill. The setting appears to be a coastal desert environment, possibly in South America based on the terrain and hillside settlements visible in the background.

    191021-A-DS579-0117 LIMA, Peru (October 21, 2019) - A litter team prepares to transport a patient with simulated injuries to a helicopter for evacuation, during a subject matter expert exchange between the U.S. Navy Medical Engagement Team and Peruvian military medical personnel, as part of Southern Partnership Station (SPS) 2019. SPS is an annual series of U.S. Navy deployments focused on exchanges with regional partner nation militaries and security forces. SPS 19 consists of fly-away deployments of adaptive force packages to Barbados, Colombia, Guatemala, Honduras and Peru to conduct training and subject matter expert exchanges to improve capacity in medical, dive operations, and engineering.
