Senior Airman Ricky Young, 446th Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron, helps configure a C-17 Globemaster III to carry 36 litters during a squadron exercise. More than 30 446th AES members participated in the flight departing from McChord Field Jan. 8, 2012. The exercise included scenarios where patients injured in combat needed to be loaded and cared for on a four-hour flight around the local area. These training exercises occur monthly and enable Reservists to hone their skills for real-world deployments and humanitarian missions. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Tanya King)
