🏁 That’s a wrap on the 2026 Europe Best Medic Competition!

Competitors closed out the final day with an 18-mile ruck march before taking on a mass casualty (MASCAL) exercise, where all teams came together to assess, treat and care for simulated ill and injured patients.

After days of demanding events testing their medical and Soldier skills, these competitors showed the endurance, expertise and teamwork it takes to be among Europe’s best medics.

👏 Congratulations to all the teams on completing the competition!

🏆 Tomorrow at 10:30 a.m., we find out who takes the title!

🚑 Day 2, Part 2!

The second half of Day 2 of the Europe Best Medic Competition kept the pressure on.

Competitors tackled rough terrain rescue, prolonged casualty care and tactical evacuation, working through scenarios that tested their ability to care for casualties and move them safely when conditions weren’t easy.

From getting patients out of difficult terrain to providing care over an extended period and coordinating evacuation, competitors had to rely on their medical skills, teamwork and each other.

That wraps up Day 2. Two days down, and these medics are still pushing.

Get some rest, competitors. Day 3 is waiting. 🩺💪

🩺 Day 2 is underway!

The first half of Day 2 of the Europe Best Medic Competition put competitors into scenarios where their medical skills and decision-making were put to the test.

From Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) to detainee operations, competitors had to react to a variety of scenarios, assess the situation, treat their patients and make decisions under pressure.

No two scenarios are the same, and that’s the point. Being a medic means being ready to adapt when the situation changes.

And we’re only halfway through Day 2.

Stay tuned. There’s more to come. 🩺💪

🩺 💪 🪖Day 1, Part 2!

The second half of Day 1 of the Europe Best Medic Competition kept our competitors moving.

They took on the Combat Water Survival Test, pushed through High Intensity Interval Training, and finished the day navigating the Litter Obstacle Course.

After a long first day of competition, these medics have already been tested on their strength, endurance, teamwork and ability to keep going when they’re tired.

That wraps up Day 1. These medics have already covered a lot of ground, and there’s still plenty of competition ahead.

Get some rest, competitors. Day 2 is coming. 💪🩺

🌧️ Day 1 of the Europe Best Medic Competition is underway, and the weather made sure our competitors earned it from the start.

The morning kicked off with the Expert Physical Fitness Assessment (EPFA), followed by the stress shoot. The rain came down, the uniforms got soaked, but the competitors kept moving.

And somehow, we’re only halfway through Day 1.

There’s plenty more to come as these medics continue to push themselves and each other.

Follow along. We’re just getting started.

Continuity of Care. Continuity of Mission.

Yesterday, Landstuhl Regional Medical Center marked an important transition as the Deployed Warrior Medical Management Center (DWMMC) conducted a Transfer of Authority from the 7453 Medical Forward Detachment 1, commanded by LTC Pam Fleming-Farmer, to the 7457 Medical Forward Detachment 3, commanded by COL Joseph Flores.

The ceremony honored the dedication and accomplishments of the outgoing team while welcoming the incoming unit as it assumes responsibility for the DWMMC mission.

A Transfer of Authority is more than a change in leadership. It represents the continuity of a vital mission and an enduring commitment to caring for our nation’s wounded, ill, and injured service members.

To the 7453rd, thank you for a mission well done. To the 7457th, welcome to the team. The mission continues.
