Logistics Specialist Petty Officer 2nd Class Sandra Ahmad, assigned to Naval Expeditionary Medicine Warfighter Development Center, applies a tourniquet to a medical dummy during an Operational Readiness Evaluation (ORE) of an Expeditionary Medical Unit (EMU) aboard the expeditionary fast transport ship USNS Point Loma (T-EPF 15), July 25, 2026. The event marked the Navy’s first ORE conducted for an EMU, and the first afloat ORE for the Navy’s expeditionary medical capability, a critical step in validating deployable medical capabilities in support of maritime operations, distributed maritime operations, and warfighter readiness.
