The United States Army’s Security Assistance Training Management Organization (SATMO) team is thrilled to announce the progress of their ongoing training with the Papua New Guinea Defense Force (PNGDF). Over the past two weeks, the SATMO team has been conducting intensive training in Small Unit Tactics (SUT) and Advanced Medical Skills at the Goldie River Training Depot and Murray Barracks. Master Sergeant (MSG) Hans Moeller II, a member of the SATMO team, expressed the team's enthusiasm. "The Team from the US Army’s SATMO is excited to be back in PNG training with 1RPIR (1st Royal Pacific Islands Regiment) in Small Unit Tactics and Advanced Medical Skills.” “This continues training from last year aimed at enhancing PNGDF’s leadership and capabilities at the tactical level and PNGDF’s ability to respond to disasters and provide critical lifesaving aid to the populace.” “This training is both challenging and rewarding, but we know the PNGDF is up to the challenge.” The first two weeks of the four-week training program for the PNG MTT medical team have been successfully completed. Both Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Life Support (ALS) were the primary focus of the training, which included thorough tests of all necessary abilities. Through thorough teach-back sessions, the 13 pupils showed that they could instruct others. Foundational ideas, electrical therapies, respiratory emergencies, arrhythmias, acute coronary syndromes, stroke, cardiac arrest, post-cardiac arrest care, and patient assessment were all covered in week two. The students are now prepared for the train-the-trainer program's Limited Primary Care component. There were 38 students enrolled in the SUT course, which was dubbed the "Warrior" Course. The squad has made great strides in spite of obstacles like the intense floods close to the Goldie River Training Depot. During a Range Day, which marked the end of Week 2, students practiced shooting the MAG58 (M240) on a tripod and a bipod. The second week also covered training for all weapons systems, combat casualty care review, casualty collection point and helicopter landing zone seminars, and high angle/low angle casualty evacuation. Battle drills and the planning of field training exercises will be the main emphasis of the next week. As we commemorate 50 years of Papua New Guinea's independence and 50 years of US-PNG diplomatic ties in 2025, this training program is an important aspect of the US' ongoing assistance for the PNGDF.
