Training
Helping to take care of the sick and injured after a major disaster can be a rewarding experience. At the same time it also requires a knowledge of the special needs of disaster victims and an awareness of the potential dangers involved in disaster response. For these reasons OH-1 D.M.A.T.  personnel undergo specialized training before they are allowed to be deployed to the field.
