A U.S. Naval Sea Cadet gives a smile after being hoisted from the survival training pool as part of exposure to training to what Sailors must endure as part of water survival training course and is supervised by an instructor at Aviation Survival Training Center (ASTC)-Pensacola as part of a first-ever aerospace advanced medical training (AVMT) held from July 28 to August 3. The inaugural AVMT class 2401 received over 32 hours of instruction in International Trauma Life Support (ITLS) curriculum from Search and Rescue (SAR) Flight Medics. Modeled after the Navy’s Flight Medic Course, cadets learned patient assessment, basic and advanced lifesaving interventions, in-flight emergency care, and critical care management to treat patients while on rotary or tilt wing aircraft. Cadets also got a taste of the SAR Fitness Test and what it takes to be a SAR Medical Technician (SMT). The Navy Medicine Operational Training Command (NMOTC) is the Navy’s leader in operational medicine and trains specialty providers for aviation, surface, submarine, expeditionary, and special operations communities. With five detachments, 12 training centers, and facilities in over 60 locations across the United States, NMOTC provides high impact individual medical training for the Navy, other U.S. armed forces, and allied nations around the globe.
