    The image shows Norwegian military personnel conducting what appears to be a medical training exercise or CASEVAC (casualty evacuation) drill in a desert environment. Soldiers in Norwegian desert camouflage uniforms are attending to a simulated casualty on the ground, with a triage tag visible marked 'Priority 2'. A civilian observer in a high-visibility vest is present, suggesting this is a supervised training exercise.

    Coalition Forces from five nations collaborated together during a combined joint mass casualty exercise at Al Asad Air Base in western Iraq on August 9, 2021. Combat medics from Company A, 2nd Battalion, 156th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, and the Norwegian Army’s Task Force Viking treated mock casualties and transported them to the 135th Medical Area Support Company at the Role 2 hospital to hone their response to a mass casualty event. Airmen from the 443rd Expeditionary Squadron, as well as support personnel from the Spanish, Polish and German Armed Forces, helped transport and triage the notional casualties.
