Photo essay of MEDEVAC crews in action by renowned photographer Jim Nachtwey. We can never repay the sacrifices made for all of us, and are so grateful for and proud of our medics who risk their lives so that others may live. Please be advised that images of MEDEVAC missions can - by their very nature - be distressing.
