    The image depicts what appears to be a military medical training exercise or drill taking place inside a large hangar facility. Multiple personnel wearing full personal protective equipment (PPE), including hooded suits, face shields, and green gloves, are attending to individuals in military camouflage uniforms lying on stretchers. The scenario simulates a hazardous materials or infectious disease response protocol.

    Staff Sgt. Lee Nembhard, an aeromedical evacuation technician assigned to the 375th Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron from Scott Air Force Base, Ill., straps a simulated Ebola patient to a litter during a Transport Isolation System training exercise at Joint Base Charleston, S.C., October 23, 2019. The TIS is a device used to transport Ebola patients, either by C-17 Globemaster III or C-130 Hercules, while preventing the spread of disease to medical personnel and aircrews until the patient can get to one of three designated hospitals in the United States that can treat Ebola patients. JB Charleston is currently the only military installation with a TIS. The TIS mission is a sub-specialty of the aeromedical evacuation mission which requires frequent training to maintain readiness.
