• B. Line 1. Location of the pick-up site.
• C. Line 3. Number of patients by precedence: A - Urgent; B - Urgent Surgical; C - Priority; D - Routine; E - Convenience
• D. Line 5. Number of patients: A - Litter; B - Ambulatory

Answer: (A)

Line 4 is the field that tells Medevac crews what special equipment, if any, is needed for the pickup and transport. If no special equipment is required, the entry is none. This communicates clearly to the aircrew and medical team that standard evacuation gear is sufficient and no hoist, extraction gear, or ventilator is required. If a hoist were needed, or extraction gear, or a ventilator, that would be listed here instead. The other options refer to different lines—location of the pickup, number of patients by precedence, or number of patients—so they don’t describe the equipment required on Line 4.
