💥 SHIFTING TO A WARTIME MINDSET: Phoenix Forge 2026!💥
Last week, Airmen from 17 different Air Mobility Command (AMC) Wings descended on Dover AFB for Phoenix Forge—and our Medical Group was on the ground to make sure the training was as realistic, demanding, and safe as possible!
Our MDG team was proud to provide the critical support that made this MAJCOM-level exercise a massive success:
• Next-Level Realism: Our team utilized expert moulage to prep 34 "casualties" (both actors and mannequins), simulating severe combat traumas like blast injuries, open fractures, and facial burns. This lifelike realism pushed 28 participants to their limits during intense Mass Casualty (MASCAL) and Mass Fatality scenarios!
• Tactical Skills in Action: We facilitated hands-on Tier 1 and Tier 2 Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) runs, 9-Line MEDEVAC calls, and MIST reporting drills.
• 24/7 Safety Net: Our medical teams provided dedicated, round-the-clock field support and active medical monitoring to keep all training participants and cadre safe in the dirt.
From base defense to emergency triage under Agile Combat Employment (ACE) scenarios, these Airmen practiced the leadership and survival skills they need to win in a simulated combat zone.
A massive shoutout to all the MDG personnel who volunteered their time, came in early, and worked tirelessly behind the scenes to deliver this world-class training. Check out the action from last week! 📸
