From 8 May to 31 May a veterinarian and an animal care specialist from Public Health Command Europe supported the three week-long medical readiness exercise in Accra, Ghana.
“For me it was almost like a deployment-like setting, resources and equipment were limited but the Ghanian partners showed me how to utilize the resources that were available and still provide enhanced care to military working dogs,” said Sgt. Ricardo Blancarte. “From our standpoint we were able to teach them more of the theoretical approaches which was very rewarding since they continued to ask questions and were eager to learn more.”
