WEBVTT

00:08.939 --> 00:11.289
Vapor Trails is a training platform

00:11.300 --> 00:13.670
that's been established here in Texas

00:13.680 --> 00:15.902
and Lackland . And it's a collaboration

00:15.902 --> 00:18.420
between uh us the 59th Medical Wing

00:18.430 --> 00:20.809
CCAT teams and then also guard flying

00:20.819 --> 00:23.190
unit and guard A E unit . It is a great

00:23.200 --> 00:25.256
training sustainment program that we

00:25.256 --> 00:27.367
we've established here . So something

00:27.367 --> 00:29.422
that's different about this specific

00:29.422 --> 00:31.478
training is that normally we package

00:31.478 --> 00:33.533
and start our scenario right here at

00:33.533 --> 00:35.533
camp bramble . But in this training

00:35.533 --> 00:37.644
exercise , we're actually going to be

00:37.644 --> 00:39.867
receiving the patients from Texas A and

00:39.867 --> 00:39.549
M disaster city . It's a different

00:39.560 --> 00:41.616
scenario to throw our teams into but

00:41.616 --> 00:43.671
could also increase the realism that

00:43.671 --> 00:46.340
they might be thrown into . This was a

00:46.349 --> 00:49.119
simulation to have our military and

00:49.130 --> 00:51.860
civilian partners work together on how

00:51.869 --> 00:54.036
do we take care of service members who

00:54.036 --> 00:56.258
get injured while they are assisting in

00:56.258 --> 00:59.290
a humanitarian response . The scenarios

00:59.299 --> 01:01.299
for this training are based on real

01:01.299 --> 01:03.410
world scenarios and then also some of

01:03.410 --> 01:07.169
them are made up , but we try to stress

01:07.180 --> 01:09.819
the providers as much as we can for

01:09.830 --> 01:12.580
situations that they would see whether

01:12.589 --> 01:15.220
they're here stateside abroad . So they

01:15.230 --> 01:17.230
can , you know , feel that they are

01:17.230 --> 01:19.230
ready to take care of any patient .

01:19.230 --> 01:21.452
This training is very important because

01:21.452 --> 01:24.464
it helps us stay ready for not only war

01:24.474 --> 01:26.934
but also like national disasters ,

01:26.944 --> 01:28.777
whether our mission will be here

01:28.777 --> 01:31.044
stateside or if it will be , you know ,

01:31.055 --> 01:33.055
deployed to a combat environment

01:33.065 --> 01:33.855
overseas .
