Columbus, Keesler AFB med teams with ANG

A team of active duty military medical personnel from Keesler and Columbus air force bases in Mississippi participated in a tailor-made training exercise with the Air National Guard at Jackson through mid-December. "Southern Strike 14" was hailed as the Mississippi ANG 172nd Airlift Wing’s premier southern training exercise. It took place Dec. 2-13 at the Trent Lott Combat Readiness Training Center and Camp Shelby. The exercise demonstrated how Mississippi’s active duty, reserve and ANG medical team personnel can work together to achieve and bring to the table when needed, said Brig. Gen. Kory Cornum, Keesler Medical Center commander. Source: Keesler 81st Medical Group, Jan. 19, 2014.
