The 374th Medical Group responded to a simulated aeromedical evacuation and mass casualty scenario during the Beverly Morning 24-1 exercise at Yokota Air Base, Japan, Oct. 20.

Evacuations and mass casualty scenarios are designed to mirror real-world crises, offering Yokota Airmen an opportunity to improve their emergency response skills while fortifying base readiness and resilience.

This portion of the BM 24-1 exercise consisted of a simulated enemy attack on a nearby installation with multiple personnel wounded, warranting an emergency evacuation to Yokota medical facilities. The injured were transported via Yokota UH-1N to the 374th MDG, where they would receive immediate care. (U.S. Air Force video by Yasuo Osakabe)
