Soldiers in the 44th Medical Brigade are expanding battlefield medical support by integrating unmanned aircraft systems into resupply operations. Two dental specialists, 1st Sgt. Fisamuel Reggans and Cpl. David Sanchez, completed an eight‑week online course at Clemson University’s Drone Academy, learning drone operations that will support medical resupply during field training and deployed missions. The training supports the Army’s modernization effort by enabling medical units to deliver critical supplies quickly in contested or austere environments, reducing manpower and risk. Reggans said the UAS gives the unit flexibility to keep soldiers in the fight and improve safety. Leaders noted the new capability extends operational reach, shortens response times, and encourages medical personnel to develop technical skills for future battlefield operations.
