At a Glance

The U.S. Army’s new marketing campaign, “Field Tested,” immerses audiences in the real-world training environments where Soldiers gain hands-on experience and proven skills that prepare them to take on whatever comes next.”Field Tested” speaks to young adults who are navigating an uncertain landscape by showing how Army training equips Soldiers with the skills, confidence, and resilience needed to succeed in any future.Three headlining films follow real Army Soldiers through the field as they demonstrate leadership, problem-solving, and camaraderie while operating advanced technology including drones, geospatial systems, and coding tools, giving audiences a firsthand view of the Army’s training environments.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — At a time when many young Americans feel uncertain about the future, the U.S. Army today announced “Field Tested,” a new marketing campaign that immerses audiences in the real training, discipline, and challenges that mold possibilities into capabilities and unshakeable confidence.

The latest chapter in the Army’s “Be All You Can Be” brand story, “Field Tested” immerses audiences in the field—the Army’s unmatched, real-world training environment where Soldiers learn by doing. The campaign shows how these experiences help Soldiers solve complex problems, lead under pressure, and rely on one another to overcome challenges.

“Young adults are entering a world defined by uncertainty—from a changing job market to rapid advances in AI—and many are looking for a tangible path forward,” says Brig. Gen. Scott C. Woodward, Army Chief Marketing Officer. “We cannot predict what comes next, but we can prepare for it. ‘Field Tested’ shows how Army training helps Soldiers build the confidence, adaptability, and skills needed to meet the changing demands of the battlefield and beyond.”

Through real Soldier stories and authentic training environments, “Field Tested” also highlights the Army’s modernization, showing evolving careers and capabilities, from drone operations and geospatial analysis to coding and intelligence.

Creative Approach to “Field Tested”
“Field Tested” offers an unfiltered view of how the modern Army operates by capturing training as it unfolds. The three films follow real Army Soldiers from the 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division at Fort Polk, Louisiana, operating in authentic environments, based on the real-world training that develops Soldiers into strong communicators, sharp problem-solvers, and unfailing teammates:

“The Field is the Teacher” follows Soldiers building real-world skills using drones, mapping technology, coding, and problem-solving in the field. The experience gained here prepares them to lead and operate under pressure wherever they go next.”The Field Takes a Team” follows Soldiers coordinating across roles, relying on each other in the field, and building bonds that last beyond the mission. Working together, they learn to communicate, support one another, and move as one team.”The Field Makes Us Stronger” follows Soldiers being tested by the terrain, cold, heat, night, and every obstacle the field puts in front of them. Each challenge builds the strength to handle whatever lies ahead.

“Some of the most profound lessons I’ve learned in the Army didn’t come from a briefing room, they came from the field,” says Gen. Christopher C. LaNeve, Vice Chief of Staff of the Army. “The austere environment is where we operate and strip away the non-essentials. The field builds the mental and physical toughness you need to endure the challenges of the battlefield. This campaign is a call to those ready to be tested.”

“Field Tested” combines multiple forms of media capture—including handheld and cell phone footage, digital photography, disposable cameras, drone cinematography, and documentary-style moments—so the camera behaves like a participant, capturing on-the-ground moments where real Soldiers operate advanced technology, solve problems under pressure, and support one another.

Where to Find “Field Tested”
“Field Tested” will connect with audiences nationally and locally through a mix of social, digital, gaming/streaming, and customized email channels, as well as high-impact media channels including Twitch, YouTube, Meta, Reddit, LinkedIn; broadcast platforms including Paramount, NBCU, and ESPN; and GoArmy.com.

Late-breaking HRX data advance Field Medical’s “instantaneous ablation” workflow and expand the clinical evidence for high-voltage focal PFA with the FieldForce™ PFA System

ATLANTA and CARLSBAD, Calif., Sept. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Field Medical, Inc., advancing high-voltage focal pulsed field ablation (PFA) for complex arrhythmias, today announced publication of 12-month results from the first-in-human Field PULSE trial in JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology. The findings were presented simultaneously as a Late-Breaking Clinical Trial at HRX Live 2026.

Field Medical developed the FieldForce™ PFA System around a high-voltage focal PFA architecture designed first for the ventricle, where depth, stability and control are among the most difficult challenges in ablation. Field PULSE extends that work into the atrium and evaluates a subsecond point-by-point workflow Field Medical terms “instantaneous ablation.” In this study, the approach was associated with procedural efficiency, durable pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and flexibility beyond the pulmonary veins, without the need for prolonged catheter stability.

Key Findings:

Procedural efficiency with subsecond focal PFA: 13-minute median elapsed PVI ablation time, with a fastest time of 7.7 minutesDurable PVI with the optimized waveform: 94.2% per-vein durability reflecting progressive improvement with waveform evolutionFlexible focal ablation: 49% of patients received non-PV ablation for additional atrial targetsNo primary safety events were observed80% freedom from atrial arrhythmias at 12 months with the optimized waveform

“Field PULSE demonstrates the feasibility of truly instantaneous focal PFA,” said Vivek Reddy, M.D., co-principal investigator, lead author and electrophysiologist at Mount Sinai Health System. “Delivering the full application in less than 200 milliseconds reduces the need for prolonged catheter stability while preserving the flexibility of point-by-point ablation. The procedural efficiency, safety and pulmonary vein durability observed with the optimized waveform support continued clinical development of this approach.”

The publication builds on Field Medical’s peer-reviewed clinical work in ventricular tachycardia. Six-month outcomes from the company’s first-in-human VCAS trial were published in Circulation in 2025. Field PULSE now adds first-in-human, peer-reviewed atrial data evaluating the same high-voltage focal PFA architecture through a distinct focal workflow in a different cardiac substrate.

“We designed FieldForce to solve some of the hardest problems in focal cardiac ablation, beginning in the ventricle,” said Mark A. Turco, M.D., president and chief executive officer of Field Medical. “Field PULSE demonstrates that the same high-voltage focal PFA architecture can support an ‘instantaneous ablation’ workflow in the atrium. This growing body of evidence reinforces the range of the platform: depth and focal control in the ventricle, speed and precision in the atrium, and the versatility to address very different cardiac substrates through a familiar point-by-point approach. These results add important clinical evidence as we continue to advance our differentiated PFA platform.”

The study, “High-Voltage Focal PFA Catheter for ‘Instant’ Point-By-Point Ablation: The First-In-Human FIELD-PULSE Trial to Treat AF,” was published online in JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology concurrent with the HRX presentation. DOI: 10.1016/j.jacep.2026.09.001.

About Field Medical®, Inc.
Field Medical is a clinical-stage medical technology company committed to advancing pulsed field ablation (PFA) solutions for complex cardiac arrhythmias. The company was founded by Steven Mickelsen, M.D., CTO, a pioneer and global thought leader in PFA whose work has helped shape the evolution of the field. The FieldForce PFA System integrates a focal catheter design with proprietary FieldBending™ energy designed to safely deliver efficient, precise ablation with the goal of improving outcomes in ventricular and atrial arrhythmia treatment. In 2024, Field Medical earned Breakthrough Device Designation and gained entry into the FDA TAP Pilot Program for its ventricular tachycardia indication. In October 2025, the VCAS trial was published in Circulation.
