Certified TCCC instructors from the Air Force Reserve 927th Air Refueling Wing, MacDill Air Force Base, Florida and active duty 6 Air Mobility Wing, MacDill AFB, facilitated a three-day joint TCCC course here, 16 through 18 Nov. The three part course, included textbook, hands-on medical training and on the final day, an as realistic as possible scenario that is designed for the trainee to react under pressure. The final scenario staged life-like mannequins posing as a patrol that encountered an improvised explosive device. Trainees had to perform all aspects of TCCC while actively under hostile fire, paintballs. (U.S. Air Force Photo/Tech. Sgt. Peter Dean)
