FORT BRAGG, N.C. -- Air Force Capt. Ken Hall administers a saline lock, more commonly known as an IV, to a Soldier during Combat Lifesaver training Dec. 16 while under the expert supervision of an Army combat medic. Captain Hall, deployed from Laughlin AFB, Texas, will serve as Team Paktia’s information operations officer. Current combat zone medical protocol calls for administering a saline lock to combat casualties because it’s easier to accomplish while veins are still viable rather than later when time might be short and the veins collapsed from blood loss.
