Hospital Corpsmen 2nd Class Kaitlyn Boyle and Jacqueline Holman of Forward Deployable Preventive Medicine Unit (FDPMU) East, Navy Environmental Preventive Medicine Unit TWO, process water samples at ISB Mielec, Poland, a staging area for the 82nd Airborne Division. The FDPMU supports public health for deployed service members, ensuring medical readiness and Force Health Protection. FDPMUs are required to complete a rigorous nine-to-12-month training and an Operational Readiness Evaluation (ORE) before certification by Commander, Naval Medical Forces Atlantic. Once certified, they are always prepared for immediate action, with two teams on the watch always. The teams provide public health support to units like Task Force Dragon, conducting site assessments and water safety evaluations. (U.S. Navy courtesy photo)
