U.S. Army Pvt. Gintaras Anderson, a combat medic assigned to 3rd Battalion, 319th Field Artillery Regiment, 82nd Airborne Division, operates an intercranial hemorrhage assessment device during a Soldier touchpoint event, Fort Liberty, N.C, Sept. 18, 2024. Anderson, a native of Summerville, S.C., volunteered to provide feedback during the event. During the touchpoint, advanced developers with the U.S. Army Medical Materiel Development Activity and the North Carolina Center for Optimizing Military Performance gathered performance feedback from Soldiers employing two brain trauma assessment devices currently under development at USAMMDA. USAMMDA develops, delivers, and fields critical drugs, vaccines, biologics, devices, and medical support equipment to protect and preserve the lives of Warfighters across the globe. USAMMDA Project Managers guide the development of medical products for the U.S. Army Medical Department, other U.S. military services, the Joint Staff, the Defense Health Agency, and the U.S. Special Operations community. The process takes promising technology from the Department of Defense, industry, and academia to U.S. Forces, from the testing required for U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval or licensing to fielding and sustainment of the finished product. USAMMDA Project Management Offices will transition to a Program Executive Office under the Defense Health Agency, Deputy Assistant Director for Acquisition and Sustainment. (U.S. Army Photo by T. T.
