Bringing Life Saving Skills to Libya
by Cpl Banfield, RMR Bristol
In a region often overshadowed by conflict, as a small group of Royal Marines Reservists and an Army Lt Col from 16 Medical
Regiment, we recently made a significant impact in Libya. A week long mission in the form of a medical Short Term Training Team (STTT) to the British Embassy led by WO2 Cooper RMR, focused on training both civilian and military medics in military medical first aid and prolonged field care techniques. This was the first STTT to visit Libya in over ten years.
