Kentucky Air Guard supports aeromedical training

CINCINNATI, OHIO -- Capt. Marsha Starks, a nurse from the 633rd Air Base Wing at Langley Air Force Base, Va., consults with Lt. Col. David Norton about the care of a simulated patient Feb 11, 2010, while participating in an aeromedical training class over the skies of southern Ohio. Colonel Norton is director of the two-week class, designed to provide medical personnel with total immersion in the care of severely injured patients. Ground training and simulated-flight training are conducted at the University of Cincinnati, one of four Air Force Centers for Sustainment of Trauma and Readiness Skills (CSTARS) nationwide, but the final day of instruction is provided during actual flight. The Kentucky Air Guard's 165th Airlift Squadron began providing its C-130s to use as a CSTARS training platform in 2009. (U.S. Air Force by Maj. Dale Greer)
