    A military medic in MARPAT digital camouflage uniform is performing an intravenous (IV) insertion or blood draw on a patient wearing a green t-shirt. The medic is wearing black nitrile gloves and using a needle/catheter on the patient's arm, which has a blue tourniquet or tape applied above the insertion site. The setting appears to be an outdoor field environment, consistent with a tactical combat casualty care (TCCC) scenario.
