GOAL

DECREASE THE NUMBER OF PREVENTABLE COMBAT DEATHS
4
Background
The basic tenets of battlefield medical support
of western armed forces have changed little since
the first world war. Early initiatives to provide
a scientific basis for battlefield medical
support began with the detailed analysis of 8,000
consecutive case studies collected by the Wound
Data and Munitions Effectiveness Team (WDMET)
during Vietnam. In the early 1990s two concurrent
activities evolved to bring lessons learned from
WDMET into the military arena. The first was
initiated by the British SAS as an answer to
unique problems of providing medical care in a
austere environment.

5
Background

The second program was initiated in 1996 by the
US Navy Seal community in partnership with the
Combat Casualty Research Center with the
publication of Tactical Combat Casualty Care in
Special Operations.
6
Background

Rangers within the 75th Ranger Regiment have
become more highly trained, expensive, and
difficult to replace than their predecessors. New
pressures on commanders have dictated that the
Ranger medical team provide excellent medical
care for the individual Ranger casualty, yet
provide the smallest possible footprint on the
battlefield.
7
MISSION
To provide state of the art Tactical Trauma
Management from point of injury to higher levels
of evacuation and treatment.
