New technology at military bases aims to prevent injury (Source: Gray DC) By Alana Austin | April 8, 2021 at 6:23 PM EDT - Updated April 8 at 8:12 PM WASHINGTON (Gray DC) - The U.S. military is expanding efforts to prevent injuries among service members. Through new advanced technology, the goal is to maximize military readiness and reduce the injuries that keep warriors off the battlefield. “In my mind, this was really a game-changer,” said U.S. Marine Corps Col. Stephen Armes (Ret.). When Armes took over the Marine Corps Human Performance Division, he was alarmed at how many Marines – especially women – in Officer Candidate School (OCS) dropped out due to injuries. Armes says, as of 2019, the historical average was a 50% drop at OCS for women, with lower extremity injuries accounting for a large portion of that rate. Armes made it his mission to change that by deploying force plate technology, developed by Sparta Science.
