Dustoff arrives at the Air Force Theatre Hospital, Balad, Iraq


Here's a Blackhawk Dustoff crew arriving at the hospital. They land with injured Iraqi Army and Police, civilians, soldiers, Marines, and contractors on a constant basis. I went up w/ these guys on a few occasions. Consumate professionals. The Blackhawks can leave Balad Air Base and pick up a wounded person at the point of injury and be back in less than 20 Minutes. 96% of those who make it to the hospital will survive. Posted by Picasa
