Army pediatrician, Capt. Gabriel Paris, assigned to Blanchfield Army Community Hospital, Young Eagle Medical Home, was recently named honor graduate at the Sabalauski Air Assault School for earning the top scores on a series of written and performative tests that measure curriculum knowledge and ability. He was among 100 Soldiers, including ROTC cadets and infantry personnel, to complete the rigorous Air Assault School, May 17. It is a 10-day course that is both physically and academically challenging, teaching Soldiers the foundations of heliborne operations to include troop transportation, sling loaded cargo and equipment transportation, medical (MEDEVAC) and casualty (CASEVAC) evacuation operations, and air assault operations.
