Cannon Connections
CANNON AIR FORCE BASE, N.M. — Ten teams of elite Emergency Medical Technicians from installations across the Air Force convened Sept. 12 and 13 at Cannon Air Force Base for two days of innovative, high-octane competition during the EMT Rodeo.
The seventh iteration of the rodeo required contenders to execute their lifesaving mission under greater pressure, fewer guidelines and more austere conditions than ever before.
Featuring five head-to-head rounds in each category of competition, the teams were required to demonstrate accurate technique and effective implementation, all under the critical eye of expert evaluators. Round one, the Commando Challenge, took place at Melrose Air Force Range.
