Warm it up
Tech. Sgt. Sydney Reed, aerospace medical journeyman in the 419th Medical Squadron, prepares a panda warmer while training at Tripler Army Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii. The center’s labor and delivery section has roughly 10 babies born every day, and each one needs to be monitored, vaccinated and stabilized before meeting his or her parents. During her two weeks of Air Force Reserve annual training, Reed was able to use her skills as a licensed practical nurse to assist with more than 50 births, including two sets of twins, while embedded with civilian and Army personnel.
