U.S. Air Force Maj. Shana Hirchert, the flight commander of the 353rd Special Operations Support Squadron Operations Support Medicine, with 353rd Special Operations Group, talks about her job as a flight physician on Kadena Air Base, Okinawa, Japan, April 9, 2021. Hirchert participated in Exercise Gryphon Ox 21-1, by providing in-flight care to a simulated plane crash casualty in the back of a CV-22 at night before transferring the casualty to care at the U.S. Naval Hospital-Okinawa (USNHO). This exercise included the first-ever landing of a CV-22 at the USNHO and provided a proof of concept for a real-world contingency plan, showing our partners in the region our capabilities for support in case of natural disasters or emergencies.
