ARNORTH, San Antonio Army Reserve engineers, Florida medics emphasize 'innovative' for DOD Readiness Training mission
August 2, 2018
Spc. Launa Bailey, a combat medic, completes an eye screening for local residents waiting for medical services at Betty Harwell Middle School in Edinburg, Texas. Approximately 50 U.S. Army Reserve Soldiers assigned to the 7235th Medical Support Unit out of Orlando, Texas, worked in partnership with the Texas A&M Colonias program June 16-27 to provide medical care to Hidalgo County's underserved colonia population. Services provided by military personnel are done through the Department of Defense's Innovative Readiness Training, a civil-military program that builds mutually beneficial partnerships between U.S. communities and the DOD. The missions selected meet training & readiness requirements for Army Reserve service members while integrating them as a joint and whole-of-society team to serve our American citizens.
