Army Medical Readiness Development in focus during Capability Days
Staff Sgt. Crystal Cerda, a combat medic with the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, sits inside a Joint Light Tactical Vehicle Ambulance Kit on display as part of the U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command’s Capability Days event, Fort Detrick, Md., April 5, 2023. Service members from across the Department of Defense’s medical development enterprise joined the USAMRDC team here to learn about the continuum of combat casualty care, from moment of injury through aerial medical evacuation, and the capabilities USAMRDC and its subordinate units are currently developing for the U.S. Joint Force. The USAMRDC Capability Days event is the culmination of months of planning between the command and teams with its subordinate units and is an opportunity for the U.S. Army’s premier medical development commands – under the USAMRDC umbrella – to showcase the latest technologies under development for America’s Warfighters.
