    DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

    Story by Tech. Sgt. Matthew Rosine 

    United States Air Forces Central       

    Among the tons of Air Force iron on the runway of the Dubai Airshow 2019, stands a few highly trained medical personnel.

    Their mission is to be ready at a moment’s notice if one of their fellow U.S. military servicemembers need them. Staff Sgt. Patricia Farrelly is one of them.

    Originally from the 633rd Aerospace Medicine Squadron at Langley Air Force Base, Virginia, the 28-year-old from Sayre, Pennsylvania, is excited by the opportunity to medically support the approximately 300 U.S. military personnel who are participating in the DAS, which showcases U.S. assets and capabilities, and strengthen relationships with America’s regional partners.

    “I am excited to be here in Dubai,” said Farrelly, who has served in the Air Force for seven years. “It is a different opportunity for me than what I am used to. It is always exciting to get to travel to new places to provide proper medical care to those who need me. And, I get to see an airshow.”

    The Dubai Airshow 2019 is the largest aerial tradeshow in the world, and allows U.S. forces to demonstrate the unique capabilities it provides throughout the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility.
