190728-N-PL543-1123 CORAL SEA (July 28, 2019) Sailors assigned to Air Department man a fire hose during a mass casualty drill aboard the Navy’s forward-deployed aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76). Mass casualty drills provide the ship’s medical and stretcher bearer team members the opportunity to treat simulated minor, serious and fatal injuries during realistic training scenarios. Ronald Reagan, the flagship of Carrier Strike Group 5, provides a combat-ready force that protects and defends the collective maritime interests of its allies and partners in the Indo-Pacific region.
