BAUMHOLDER, Germany (March 16, 2016) -- Nearly 200 participants have spent the last week attempting to earn the Expert Field Medical Badge.
Soldiers from seven NATO allies are among the 195 participants in this year's event. The test is a rigorous evaluation of mental and physical skills and earning the badge requires a high degree of ability and focus.
The medics are graded on three Combat Testing Lanes; day and night land navigation; a written test and a 12-mile road march.
