Members of the Point Hope team assemble after returning from a successful mission in Point Hope, Alaska, April 24. During their first night of the Innovative Readiness Training Arctic Care, the team members were notified about a suicide attempt and provided first aid to the victim. Their swift actions helped save the victim’s life. IRT Arctic Care 2013 is a multi-service humanitarian and training program that focuses on enhancing the capability of U.S. forces in peacetime support operations, humanitarian assistance and disaster relief. IRT Arctic Care brings medical, dental and veterinary aid to 12 rural villages in Alaska. The exercise is primarily a Reserve effort with Marine Forces Reserve taking the lead and receiving logistical and medical support from the National Guard, Army Reserve, Navy Reserve and Air Force Reserve.
