ARABIAN SEA (NNS) -- The secondary mission of U.S. Navy amphibious assault ships is casualty receiving. Usually a fleet surgical team (FST) embarks these ships for deployments to augment the capabilities of the indigenous medical department, bringing skills such as trauma surgery and mental health services. But with a lack of major cases, these specialists often find themselves with more downtime than usual and a challenge to maintain their proficiency.
