Matthew Depodesta, firefighter, 386th Expeditionary Civil Engineer Squadron, during the joint coalition Tactical Combat Casualty Care course at a skating rink at Ali Al Salem Air Base, Kuwait, May 29, 2022. In the TCCC course, which replaced the Self-Aid Buddy Care course, U.S. service members and coalition partners practiced applying a tourniquet, wrapping a bandage and opening the airway by using the head tilt/chin-lift or jaw thrust maneuver. TCCC was designed to help lessen preventable combat deaths by providing proven trauma stabilization techniques, allowing for the wounded to survive long enough to receive life-saving treatment at a medical facility.
