TOLEDO, Ohio - Airmen here participated in a joint multi-unit C-17 Globemaster III training exercise that took place over six days, from June 3 to June 8.
The training provided Airmen with the opportunity to practice realistic scenarios with other military units and civil authorities as a way to help build strong working relationships and improve deployment capabilities.
The training included representatives from the Ohio Air National Guard and The U.S. Air Force Reserves, U.S Navy, U.S. Army, U.S Air Force, Ohio Red Cross, Ohio Disaster Medical Assistance Team and U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
During the event Airmen learned about the proper preparation and loading of a C-17. The training covered a wide range of topics including vehicle preparation, pallet building, winching, chain restraint procedures, trailer uploads, and heavy equipment uploads.
The training also incorporated aeromedical evacuation procedures including loading/unloading patients and in-flight emergency medical response, such as resuscitating a simulated patient experiencing cardiac arrest while flying.
