190605-N-TH560-0965 CAMP GONSALVES, Okinawa, Japan (June 5, 2019) Hospital Corpsmen maneuver a patient in a sked stretcher up a cliff as part of a 10-day Jungle Medicine Course at Jungle Warfare Training Center, Okinawa, Japan. “Communication is a big thing when you’re moving that patient,” said Hospitalman Ava Hill, from Lafayette, La. “It’s heavy. You’re tired, and if you’re not communicating, somebody could slip or hurt themselves.”The 10-day medical course trains Navy medical personnel assigned to Marine forces on jungle survival skills, patient tracking, field medical care, and casualty evacuation techniques.
