PATUXENT RIVER, Md. — Hospital Corpsmen from Navy Medicine Readiness and Training Command (NMRTC) Patuxent River practice suturing techniques during a hands-on suture lab. From left, HA Keyona White, HM3 Jhaneil Smith, HM3 Dominique Heath and HN Lakadyia Roberts practice wound closure on a pig's foot, which is used in training because its skin closely mimics human tissue. The training was designed to enhance the life-saving skills of corpsmen, ensuring a ready medical force.
