Senior Airman Nicholas Lent
375th Aeromedical Staging Flight
Medical technician
"As a medical technician I enable combat power by healing servicemembers wounded in the AOR so they can return to the fight. The moment the plane hits the ground, we offload them and take them to the clinic where we provide around the clock medical treatment until they are able to return to their home station."
