2nd Med Battalion conducts air exercise...while a real emergency is going on!...pic by Pfc. Nicholas Guevara

Corpsmen from 2nd Medical Battalion carry a simulated casualty onto an MV-22 Osprey during an en-route care training exercise at Camp Lejeune, N.C. on Aug 24, 2017. The training was conducted to prepare corpsmen to successfully aid casualties while transporting them via aircraft to a higher level of medical attention. The sailors are with 2nd Medical Battalion. 

Awesome.  Now do you get the force of connection?  2nd Med Bn is conducting an exercise while a real world emergency is happening in the 4th largest city in the US.

This is unsat and someone somewhere needs to address this and provide answers!

Why aren't they assisting the authorities in Texas?

Why aren't these Corpsmen backfilling the civilian medical personnel that's operating on their last legs by now?

Why aren't we seeing resources that are sitting on the shelf, simply doing exercises being flexed to aid their fellow Americans?

I know you're tired of me beating on this drum but this is infuriating!
