(Reported by: Military News Agency; reporter: Chou Sheng-wei, Taichung, 29th) The 302^nd Infantry Brigade accepted draftees for the 2226^th echelon for one-year compulsory military service. "First-aid for battle injuries, and self-rescue and rescuing others" training was implemented today. During the process, enlisted students were divided into groups to implement various exercises, including using transportation, tourniquets, hemostatic gauze packing, pressure hemostatic bandages, and others, and they gradually learned self-rescue and rescuing others while working in pairs.

The instructor initially explained the keys aspects of various self-rescue operations and rescuing others, and broke down the demonstrations to help trainees understand the relevant details. Enlisted students then practiced what they had learned, serving as injured people and rescuers under the guidance and supervision of the squad leader, so they could learn the differences between the skills of self-rescue and rescuing others, helping to lay the foundation for combat rescue.

The 302^nd Infantry Brigade stated that the main purpose of combat injury first-aid and rescue training is to treat and protect the wounded while "completing tactical missions." Since failure of a tactical mission may result in the annihilation of entire battalions, it relies on the success of the tactical mission so that injured personnel can be evacuated.
