Tactical combat casualty care handbook, version 5.
No full textTactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) has saved hundreds of lives during our nation’s conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. Nearly 90 percent of combat fatalities occur before a casualty reaches a medical treatment facility. Therefore, the prehospital phase of care is needed to focus on reducing the number of combat deaths. However, few military physicians have had training in this area and, at the onset of hostilities, most combat medics, corpsmen, and pararescue personnel in the U.S. military have been trained to perform battlefield trauma care through civilian-based trauma courses. These courses are not designed for the prehospital combat environment and do not reflect current practices in the area of prehospital care. TCCC was created to train Soldiers and medical personnel on current best practices for medical treatment from the point of injury to evacuation to Role 3 facilities.

Survey of the development of the role of the U.S. Army military advisor. OCMH study.
No full textThe following survey attempts to trace the development of the role of the American military advisor from its humble beginnings down to the present time. Because of the limitations of time, no effort has been made to cover the experience in depth or to include all of the many missions that the United States has dispatched abroad since World War II. The survey, therefore, will confine itself to a sampling of the advisory role in several key areas and set forth the major policy and legislative actions that have had an influence upon the role of the advisor
Provisioning & logistics support of the LARC (lighter amphibious resupply cargo) used by the Army in Vietnam. Project number AMC 68.
No full textIn 1942, the Army and the General Motors Corporation developed the first successful amphibian and gave it the code name DUKW. The D for the year, the U for utility, the K for front wheel drive and the W for the two rear axles. Its success in WWII in transporting cargo from ship to shore and over unimproved beaches led to the development of a family of amphibious lighters to replace and increase the carrying capacity of the aging DUKW. In 1951, the Department of Defense (DOD) authorized the Army Transportation Corps to develop lighters to meet these requirements. The Corps developed sixty ton model in 1952, a five ton model in 1954 and a fifteen ton model in 1960 which were type classified standard "A" in 1954, 1960 and 1962, respectively. This monograph traces the problems in the development and production of these lighters and their subsequent employment between June 1965 and December 1968 over the unimproved beaches in Southeast Asia (SEA). Other data include lighter population, tonnage reports, other employment, and discussion of Army organizations responsible for their direction, operation and maintenance in SEA. This monograph is the second in a series of studies of selected U. S. Army Mobility Equipment Command managed equipment. It records the development and production of the family of Lighter Amphibious Resupply Cargo vehicles and their deployment in SEA. Records of the Army Materiel Command Product Manager, Amphibians and Watercraft and files of the Directorates of Procurement and Production, Supply and Maintenance were used in its compilation. It was supplemented by unit histories furnished by the Army Transportation Museum, Fort Eustis, Virginia and personal interviews with Equipment Specialists responsible for their operation in Southeast Asia
