Medical Discharge Learn the process Marines go through when they are medically discharged from the Corps. https://lnkd.in/gwva85Jn The Marine Corps demands a lot from Marines, both physically and mentally. Physical training can take a toll on the body. The mental stress, whether a Marine has been in combat or not, can take a toll on the mind. Medical conditions can persist to a point that a Marine would be rendered unfit for duty and then be medically separated or retired. Thus begins a process to determine whether a Marine is fit to continue their job duties. This process involves two boards for review. One is the Medical Evaluation Board (MEB), and the other is the Physical Evaluation Board (PEB). Learn more about this process at MarineParents.com! https://lnkd.in/gVzvXbxY

In the new issue of National Defense University's Joint Force Quarterly, authors of "The Survival Chain: Medical Support to Military Operations on the Future Battlefield" propose a new approach to combat casualty care designed to "gain and maintain medical overmatch on future battlefields." Uniformed Services University Class of 2025 medical student 2LT Mason Remondelli is a contributing author of this important new publication, which responds to Christian Brose’s “kill chain” concept of combat strategy, and highlights the strategic importance of medicine on the battlefield. Read it here (page 94): https://lnkd.in/eGXXeN2R

So, you have a bunch of units that are borderline mission capable because they’re one person away from being mission incapable. That one person, who can do that crucial job, can’t participate in SkillBridge, can’t take leave, and has to work on weekends. Is this feasible in the modern Marine Corps? While generals are fixated on technology, the fastest planes, and the most advanced communications, the solutions are right in front of them: 1. Right-size the units or dissolve weak ones to strengthen others and address the troop-to-task saturation issues. One Marine can’t do everything. Concentrate on Support units. 2. Analyze the T&R manual, which outlines the required team and hours, to realize it’s virtually impossible to meet those standards when units are often understaffed. 3. Give Marines more money with bonuses. Instead of ordering two planes that often crash, get rid of the Osprey, and use those funds to pay Marines more.

Combat history has taught us valuable lessons in the way that military medicine triaged, treated, and evacuated casualties in the face of an adversary... As we prepare for whatever the future may hold, there are principles or concepts that will never change despite advancements in technology and military logistics strategy: 1. Proximity matters - particularly in areas with great distances in between capabilities 2. Mobility - accounting for the ability (or lack thereof) to transport casualties and adjusting triage to preserve the fighting force - first and foremost 3. Continuity - ensuring that those who can be saved are provided treatment and care at the appropriate levels to reduce morbidity and mortality 4. Coordination - particularly with joint and international partners prior, during, and post conflict 5. Conformity - Integrating medical plans with the overarching sustainment plan and accounting for capabilities and capacity 6. Flexibility - adjusting plans to address new threats, resource limitations, and or an ever evolving battle-space While these principles may never change, they do challenge us to think differently and take bold action in the face of new threats to ensure that warfighters are provided life saving treatment when and where they need it most.
