Mission Possible: PRT leaders begin training for year in Afghanistan
FORT BRAGG, N.C. -- Army 1st Lt. Dax Burroughs administers a saline lock, more commonly known as an IV, to Air Force Tech. Sgt. John Natoli during Combat Lifesaver training Dec. 16 while under the expert supervision of an Army combat medic. Sergeant Natoli, Team Paktia’s information systems officer, is deployed from Travis Air Force Base, Calif. Current combat zone medical protocol calls for administering a saline lock to combat casualties because it’s easier to accomplish while veins are still viable rather than later when time might be short and the veins collapsed from blood loss.
