Members from the 301st Aerospace Medicine and 701st Medical Squadrons take vital signs from one of the volunteers moulaged specifically for this Mass Casualty Exercise. The exercise was designed to stimulate discussion of issues concerning a hypothetical situation and evaluate the plans, policies and procedures or systems guiding the primary response and recovery process, while maintaining a safe environment. It also measured the effectiveness and adequate response of the squadrons to disasters relating to their peacetime missions. Approximately 90 patients with several types of injuries or illnesses were brought into the scenario. The moulage provided was excellent. All in all the exercise was a success.
