Synopsis "Medical Evacuation in a Theater of Operations Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (FM 8-10-6) (in English)"
This field manual (FM 8-10-6), "Medical Evacuation in a Theater of Operations Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures," provides the philosophy of and doctrine for medical evacuation in a theater of operations. Tactics, techniques, and procedures for accomplishing the medical evacuation of sick, injured, or wounded soldiers are included. Medical evacuation, with the provision of en route medical care, is a vital link in the continuum of care from the point of injury through the combat health support system to medicate treatment facilities with the required definitive or restorative medical treatment capabilities. This publication is intended for use by medical and nonmedical unit commanders and their staffs. This publication also discusses: coordination requirements for and use of nonmedical transportation assets to accomplish the medical evacuation mission. These nonmedical assets may be used in a mass casualty situation or other circumstances when the available medical evacuation assets are overwhelmed; definitive guidance for the performance of hoist rescue missions; and techniques for evacuating casualties from minefields. The information in this publication on manual and litter carries may be used to instruct personnel in the proper methods of handling and moving casualties.
