Operation Gunpowder
While the beginning of B3 was artsy feely, we capped it off with Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) certification and Operation Gunpowder. The first day of the exercise provided us with some practice and instruction for situations we might encounter the next day. The second day was a race around campus with 16 potential stations to complete various tasks that required teamwork, medical and military skills.
There was some media coverage of the event and I think it's safe to say I'm now famous!
I had a minor appearance in this one:
