Rear Adm. Guido Valdes, commander of Naval Medical Forces Pacific (NMFP), listens to German Army Maj. Gen. Hans-Ulrich Holtherm, commandant of the Bundeswehr Medical Academy, sharing his insight about adapting training to reflect realistic scenarios learned from current conflicts, such as the war in Ukraine. “We have intensified training with Ukrainian medics, and we learn as much from them as they do from us,” Holtherm said. “They provide firsthand insight into the realities of war against Russia.” The visit reaffirmed both nations’ shared commitment to building a more resilient, interoperable and agile medical force.
