World of Special Operations Medicine

The purpose of the World of Special Operations Medicine column in the Journal of Special Operations Medicine is to help connect the non-US portions of the Special Operations Medicine community with the rest of the Special Operations Medicine community.

We are looking for 2 to 4 pages to include any picture and tables, if needed.

Opportunities: one per quarterly edition. Note deadlines at website.

Identification of Authors: by invitation, but we will look at uninvited works as well.

Ideas for consideration: Brief identification of the authors' national SOF or SOF-relevancy, the who (individuals, units), the what (important issues, roles, missions, scholarly works, knowledge gaps), where (ground the global reader where you are and what it's like), when (let them know what's been going on the last couple of years and what you're thinking will be important to you for the next few), why (you can discuss any new items that are special to you and your nation that are relevant for the globe to know). Particularly key on items that are relevant to your connection to the world community so that the World of Special Operations Medicine knows about you and can relate to you better.

Process of writing: we recommend that an outline of your ideas are checked with the editors early for feedback before much is written.
