    Instructors and staff of the Aviation Survival Training Institute (ASTC) Pensacola conduct a situational safety talk to discuss methods to handle students and conduct training safely for a live flare fire demonstration of the Mk 79 and MK 124 flares, June 22. Periodically personnel must undergo live refresher training to ensure proper deployment. With a student throughput exceeding 14,000 students annually the staff and instructors at Naval Survival Training Institute (NSTI) also undergo training to ensure they are using the proper techniques to train students that pass through the ASTCs and out to the Fleet. NSTI, a detachment of NMOTC, specializes in training the pilots, aircrew, and service members who support other specialized communities in survival skills and technique to survive aviation emergencies. Students and service members who complete training and courses will be equipped, with an understanding of stressors placed on the body, the rigors of egress and techniques for survival in situations of hostile and austere environments. Navy Medicine Operational Training Command (NMOTC) is comprised of six nationwide detachments that offer specialized medical training in the fields of aviation, aviation survival, surface and undersea warfare, expeditionary and special operations medicine.
