Iron Sharpens Iron

Medical personnel from 2d Medical Battalion conduct Valkyrie autologous blood transfusions and run trauma lanes during Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) tier 4 last week at our Battalion's Tactical Medical Training Center.

TCCC tier 4 is the most advanced level of TCCC, designed for Physicians, Physician Assistants, Nurses, and Independent Duty Corpsmen. It transitions providers out of controlled clinical settings and teaches invasive procedures, prolonged field care, and damage control resuscitation for austere environments.

Our Tactical Medical Training Center continues to pump out highly-trained and capable Corpsmen, Nurses and Providers ready for the fight.

Recognizing Our Hardchargers.

We'd like to shine a spotlight on some of the recent accomplishments made by our hard working Marines and Sailors. We recently witnessed the promotion ceremony of Gunnery Sergeant Michael Vorpahl to Master Sergeant. We wish him and his family fair winds and following seas as they head out the door to their next duty assignment. LCpl Baraby and LCpl PeraltaMosquea were promoted to the rank of Corporal at a promotion ceremony on Onslow Beach. Our Staff NCOs engaged in a motivational 3 mile run building camaraderie and Esprit De Corps. Last but not least our H&S Company Commander Captain Bogard turned over the reigns of the Company to Captain Thomasgard. We wish Captain Bogard the best and thank her for her incredible, transformational leadership these past two years.

Semper Fidelis Warriors 💪❤️

Valkyrie Course Part 2️⃣

Sailors with 2nd Medical Battalion participated in the second Joint Trauma System Valkyrie Prehospital Transfusion course at Tactical Medical Training Center, Camp Lejeune. 🩸

This five-day course teaches Sailors about whole blood transfusion, emergency transfusions, the different blood types and incompatibilities, donor screenings, adverse transfusion reactions, and blood storage and transportation. 🚁 🚑

The course focuses on learning and practical application of fresh whole blood collection and transfusion for patients in forward-deployed and austere environments. By attending this course our medical personnel sharpen their skills and are ready to save lives on tomorrow's battlefield. 💪
