Aeromedical Evacuation
Using the C-9 Nightingale, C-130 Hercules, C-141 Starlifter, C-17 Globemaster III, or B-767 Civil Reserve Air Fleet Aircraft, Air Force Reserve units provide intra- and inter-theater aeromedical evacuation and represent 65 percent of the total Air Force medical crew capability. Air Force Reserve aeromedical personnel are specially trained for management of patients aboard these aircraft and are supported by skilled ground personnel to ensure appropriate care is given during the movement of casualties. Mobile aeromedical staging facilities, aeromedical evacuation liaison teams, aeromedical evacuation control centers, and aeromedical evacuation operations teams are vital components of the overall system that will transport joint service casualties from the area of operations to a medical facility with the capability to provide definitive health care.
