    Members of the 445th Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron offload a Next Generation Portable Therapeutic Liquid Oxygen System (NPTLOX) from a C-17 Globemaster III during Dissimilar Aircraft Refresher Training (DART) at Keesler Air Force Base, Miss. March 21, 2023. They were among six reservists assigned to the 445th AES which were enroute to train at St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Island, March 21 – 23, 2023. The purpose of DART is to provide AES nurses and technicians a bulk of their semiannual training requirements by having each participant train on different aircraft not typically flown at their home stations. The training was a part of their overall Aeromedical Readiness Missions (ARMs) training in which they conduct at least nine times monthly. They began the medical training on their own wing’s C-17 Globemaster III flying enroute to Keesler Air Force Base, Miss. from Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio then they “tail” swapped into a C-130J Hercules flown by the 815th Airlift Squadron at Keesler. They continued the training on the C-130 aircraft enroute to St. Croix where they continued training. The training included mock patient transport and in-flight care.
