    Sgt. Chris Wickeser, a medic and civilian firefighter, and a Ugandan lieutenant rush an injured Ugandan soldier into the 629th Forward Surgical Team's field hospital. The 629th FST, from Columbus, Ohio, is in rural Uganda to provide medical care for other US personnel participating in a military exercise with five East African nations, but when they learned of the injured Ugandan, they ensured he was stabilized and prepared for a rapid medevac via CH-47 Chinook.
