Snake eaters' new training proves valuable

A team of 28 Squadron Royal Air Force Regiment combat medics care for a 'wounded' soldier aboard a casualty evacuation helicopter during a training scenario at Davidstow, North Cornwall, England. The RAF Regiment now uses volunteers who've lost a limb in battle but still want to serve as patients. Utilizing special moulage teams and the fact that the members already have a missing limb, combat medic trainers are able to give their new medics realistic human casualties to treat.
