    "USAARL collaborated with the US Army School of Army Aviation Medicine (USASAM) at Fort Rucker, Alabama to conduct testing inside their man-rated altitude chamber. The goal of this effort was to test three patient isolation units (PIUs) to determine if they will operate correctly when exposed to simulated altitudes from ground level up to 18,000 feet. Barometric pressure changes are commonly associated with the aviation environment. Such changes can drastically affect medical equipment performance during en route care. USAARL's partnership with SAAM was recently formally established through a Memorandum of Agreement signed by BG Talley Commander of U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command (USAMRDC) on 29 Sept ". USASAM (ECG) participants: LTC Joe Pena, Mr. Dennis Ard, and SFC Patrick Lawson and Mr. Keith Shultz

    USAARL (ECG) participants: Chad Adaway, SGT Kelsey Demorest, and Greg Leach.
