U.S. Army soldiers board a medical evacuation train for simulated transport to the Daejeon Armed Forces Hospital after completing medical assessments at Deokjeong Station, South Korea, March 18, 2026. Dragon Lift, an intra-theater evacuation exercise integrated into Freedom Shield 26, simulates a mass-casualty scenario in which frontline patients are triaged at Deokjeong Station. Emergency cases receive immediate on-site care, while stabilized casualties are transported via train to the Daejeon Armed Forces Hospital. This training validates multinational interoperability, ensuring U.S. and ROK forces can rapidly transport and treat casualties to support the combined defense of the peninsula.
