26th MEU Conducts FHA Training During C2X

A U.S. Navy Corpsman with the Shock Trauma Platoon, 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) provides medical assistance to a simulated casualty after a notional aftershock during a scenario-driven foreign humanitarian assistance (FHA) during Composite Training Unit Exercise in Perry, Georgia, May 27, 2023. FHA consists of Department of Defense activities conducted outside of the U.S. and its territories to directly relieve or reduce human suffering, disease, hunger, or privation. FHA is intended to supplement or complement efforts of host nation civil authorities or agencies with the primary responsibility for providing assistance. The 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit serves as one of the Nation’s premier crisis response forces capable of conducting amphibious operations, crisis response, and limited contingency operations, to include enabling follow-on forces and special operations.
