The Illinois Army National Guard trained alongside their partner nation of Poland June 1–15. A four-person medical team from Charlie Company, 634th Brigade Support Battalion, worked with Poland’s Territorial Defence Forces to advise on combat casualty care techniques. Integrated with Polish instructors, the training emphasized decision-making, casualty evacuation, and the realities of battlefield medicine. Through hands-on experience with multiple evacuation methods and a culminating mission involving simulated combat, the exchange strengthened interoperability and trust—key outcomes of the State Partnership Program.
