An aerial view of Jalalabad reflects in the visor of U.S. Army Spc. Trevor Milbury, of Sandwich, N.H., a crew chief with the Medevac Platoon “Dustoff,” Company C, 3rd Battalion, 238th Aviation Regiment, Task Force Dragon, as his crew conducts a hoist training exercise in their UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter near Forward Operating Base Fenty, Nangarhar province, Afghanistan, Sept. 16, 2013. Medevac teams provide emergency care to U.S. and coalition forces, and transport patients by air to medical treatment facilities. Using a hoist allows medevac crews to raise and lower supplies and personnel into remote or treacherous areas where landing the aircraft is impossible. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Sgt.
