A medical officer's plan to evacuate wounded soldiers at Port Shuaiba, Kuwait, was never briefed or put in place after she was sent to Jordan, according to an Associated Press investigation of the March 1st Iranian drone strike that killed six U.S. soldiers and wounded dozens in the opening day of Operation Epic Fury. AP reports the officer had prepared an evacuation plan that included collection points for moving the wounded. She was among a group sent to Jordan, and the plan was never implemented. Seven soldiers, including senior officers stationed at the port, told the AP the unit went into the war without a broad plan for a mass casualty event. After the strike, soldiers whose phones still worked used Google to find the nearest medical facilities, AP reports. One group of wounded was treated at a Kuwaiti hospital for about 48 hours, then stayed in residential homes in Kuwait for another week because Iranian missiles and drones made evacuation flights risky. They eventually flew to Germany on a cargo plane. Source: apnews.com/article/iran-war-…
