Sailors from the Navy Health Clinic Charleston simulate wrapping a patient with a Mylar blanket during the First Receivers Operations Training course June 21, 2013, at Joint Base Charleston - Weapons Station, S.C. The Mylar blanket would be used by the NHCC team to reduce heat loss in a person's body caused by thermal radiation, water evaporation and convection. The NHCC team participated in the FROT course to educate their Sailors on life-saving skills consisting of triage, initiate field treatment, decontaminate and save victims from Chemical, Biological, Radiological/Nuclear, or Hazardous Material. The 16-hour course consisted of one, eight-hour day of class lecture and a second eight-hour day of "hands-on" teamwork training to include a final "timed" exercise. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt.
