SAN DIEGO (Sept. 16, 2021) Lt. Rowena Benedictos, a Sailor embarked with the Medical Treatment Facility (MTF) aboard the Military Sealift Command (MSC) hospital ship USNS Mercy (T-AH 19), triages a mock patient during Mercy Exercise (MERCEX) 21-4 in one of the ship's intensive care units Sept. 16, 2021. MERCEX 21-4 is a week-long, pierside training evolution that culminated in a capstone emergency scenario. Mercy can steam to assist anywhere to provide relief as a symbol of Navy Medicine’s abilities around the world, and must be in a five-day-activation status in order to support missions over the horizon, and be ready, reliable and resilient to support mission commanders.
