U.S. Army Medics assigned to the South Carolina Army National Guard conduct fresh whole blood transfusions during casualty response training at the McCrady Training Center, Eastover, South Carolina, Dec. 7, 2018.  The medics are the first Army medics in the state to learn this new tool to enhance Soldier survivability during a traumatic injury. The transfusion will help add more time to the golden hour, which is the most critical time for successful emergency treatment.
