U.S. Army Maj. Laird Bryant, a civil affairs officer with the 44th Medical Brigade, XVIII Airborne Corps, receives a tour of the Kibuye Hope Hospital in Burundi’s Gatega province, from Dr. Carlan Wendler, professor of emergency medicine, during a post-deployment site survey (PDSS). The results of the PDSS will determine future sites to host medical training exercises or MEDREXs.
Laird is part of a U.S. Army medical team from the 44th Medical Brigade, partnering with the Burundi National Defense Force for MEDREX Burundi 24-3, a bi-lateral medical readiness exercise held at the Kamenge Military Hospital in Bujumbura, Burundi from April 8-26, 2024. The partners will work side-by-side to provide treatment in a variety of medical specialties to military and civilian patients in the Bujumbura communities.
MEDREX is planned and executed by the U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa (SETAF-AF) and allows military medical personnel from the U.S. Army and their African partners to exchange medical practices, procedures and techniques that build and strengthen treatment capabilities resulting in lasting relationships between medical professionals.
