193rd SOW Special Ops Surgical Team Demonstrates Capabilities

Airmen from the 193rd Special Operations Wing participate in a Special Operations Surgical Team (SOST) demonstration in Middletown, Pa., Jan. 10, 2025. The demo simulated taking patients in a Pennsylvania Army National Guard CH-47 Chinook helicopter from a forward-deployed location to an established airfield where a tail-to-tail transfer could be completed with a 193rd MC-130J Commando II aircraft — staffed with a Critical Care Air Transport Team (CCATT) and Special Operations Forces Medical Element (SOFME) — to get the patients onward for further treatment.
