U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Anthony Lachat, an aerospace medical technician with the 673d Expeditionary Medical Group out of Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, inserts an intravenous catheter to provide life-saving medications and blood products on a simulated casualty during a mass casualty exercise as part of Exercise Agile Reaper 24-1 at Tinian spoke, Northern Mariana Islands, April 16, 2024. The mass casualty exercise was designed to emphasize precedence of patient care in an austere environment by providing a scenario to stress the small medical team and support personnel with an overwhelming number of patients and injury patterns that exceeded the medical facility’s immediate capabilities and resources to provide care. AR 24-1 is a 3rd Wing-led exercise that focuses on Agile Combat Employment and a hub-and-spoke concept of operations with an operations center, or hub, located at Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, and four disaggregated locations serving as spokes. The exercise employs combat-representative roles and processes to deliberately target all participants as a training audience and stress the force’s capability to generate combat air power in an expeditious manner across the Indo-Pacific Region.
