    CAMP PENDLETON, Calif. (June 20, 2022) A Sailor assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 1st Marine Division, performs an emergency cricothyroidotomy on a patient during Operation Firebreak. Operation Firebreak involves patient care from point of injury through Role I, Role II, and Role III care. Operation Firebreak is part of Navy Reserve-Expeditionary Medical Facility (NR-EMF) Bethesda’s operational readiness evaluation (ORE). The ORE directly supports the Surgeon General's guidance that "Navy Medicine will optimize to project medical power in support of Naval Superiority." NR-EMF Bethesda is comprised of Reservists from around the country that came together to complete training which includes equipment familiarization, integrated medical/patient throughput training, scenario/mission, and emergency (fire, security, etc.) training.
