U.S., Chad medical readiness exercise begins
U.S. Army surgeons and nurses, assigned to the 402nd Forward Resuscitative Surgical Detachment, U.S. Army Reserve, begin the medical readiness exercise (MEDREX) by getting a tour of the Garnison Military Hospital where they will work alongside their Chadian Armed Forces counterparts in N’Djamena, Chad, June 12, 2024. The MEDREX in Chad is part of the medical readiness exercise program, planned and executed by U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa (SETAF-AF), that allows military health professionals from the U.S. and their African partners to exchange medical practices, procedures and techniques that build and strengthen treatment capabilities, resulting in lasting relationships between the partners.
