    Three military personnel in OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniforms stand inside what appears to be a military transport aircraft, likely a C-17 Globemaster. All three are wearing blue surgical masks and aviation headsets, suggesting a medical or aeromedical evacuation mission. Behind them is visible a transparent isolation enclosure consistent with an Aeromedical Biological Containment System (ABCS) used for transporting infectious patients.

    An Aeromedical Evacuation unit from Travis Air Force Base, California, support a Transport Isolation System operation at Joint Base Pearl-Harbor Hickam, Hawaii, July 17, 2020. A team of Airmen from several commands rapidly executed a Transport Isolation System in support of a COVID-19 bio-containment aeromedical evacuation mission. This is the first time the TIS was utilized in the Indo-Pacific area of operations. The TIS is an infectious disease containment unit designed to minimize contamination risk to aircrew and medical attendants, while allowing in-flight medical care for patients afflicted by a disease.
