A soldier wearing a 'MEDIC' patch and a 'Dark Knight' unit patch is performing medical assessment or airway management on the training dummy.

    U.S. Army Spc. James Wyman, a combat medic assigned to the 603rd Military Police Company, 109th Military Police Battalion, prepares to execute a needle decompression to the chest of the simulated casualty during the medical lane on day three of the five-day Dark Knight competition held at Ādaži Military Base, Latvia, Sept. 9, 2026. The needle decompression is a critical combat lifesaver skill used to relieve pressure caused by suspected tension pneumothorax, helping stabilize a casualty and buy valuable time until higher-level medical care is available. V Corps is the U.S. Army's only forward-deployed corps, serving as the senior tactical headquarters for Army forces in Eastern Europe to deter conflict and provide combat-ready forces alongside our NATO Allies. V Corps is operationalizing and expanding the Eastern Flank Deterrence Initiative with Allies, rapidly integrating emerging technologies into training and tactical plans. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt.
