Meet the men and women who work every day for NATO. From soldiers to scientists, cyber experts to civilian emergency responders, NATO members are committed to supporting and protecting each other. Corporal Francisco Santos, from Spain’s Military Emergency Unit, uses drones in his daily job to help rescue victims trapped in near-inaccessible areas. This piece was filmed during a disaster response exercise in Bosnia and Herzegovina, involving 34 NATO and partner countries. It was the 17th international field exercise organised by NATO’s Euro-Atlantic Disaster Response Coordination Centre (EADRCC). Footage shows various scenes from the exercise including Corporal Santos (Unidad Militar de Emergencias/ Military Emergency Unit) flying a drone.
