US Navy medical forces are preparing for high-intensity military conflicts in various parts of the world

The U.S. Department of Defense Visual Information Distribution Service (DVIDS) reports that the U.S. Navy Medical Forces, for the first time in stories change the concept of work in order to ensure the actions of the naval forces in a military conflict. The corresponding order was signed by the Chief Surgeon of the US Navy, Rear Admiral Bruce Gillingham, who heads this service, which consists of about 54 military and civilian medical workers. These personnel provide expeditionary medical support to military personnel stationed at naval bases and ships around the world.

The order prioritizes support for distributed maritime operations, forward-based expeditionary operations and logistics operations in a military conflict, including increased intensity.



We are taking this urgent action because our navies operate in contested battlespaces that are rapidly growing in lethality, complexity and scope - and we must be ready for the next battle now.

- explained the appearance of the order, the head of the military medical service.

The order was preceded by reorganization actions in the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery and its subordinate commands, the Atlantic Naval Medical Force, the Pacific Naval Medical Force, and the Naval Medical Support Command. These changes include the creation of a Naval Headquarters (MHQ) and a Maritime Operations Center (MOC) in each command.

Associate Director of the Naval Medical Task Force Kathleen Dager said that thanks to the changes already made and the implementation of the new concept, the US Navy Medical Service should be able to provide the necessary support and assistance. the fleet and the Marines "in some of the harshest maritime conditions we've seen since World War II."

As the nature of potential future conflict changes, naval medicine must evolve with it. Our ability to project medical power in support of the superiority of the Navy requires a common coordinated effort.

Gillingham stressed, adding that as a result of the reforms under the new concept, “our highly qualified medical workers will be ready for future combat.”

        So the United States themselves run into this and at the same time want to get out of the water themselves!

            Exactly.
            When you read "US medical forces", it is not doctors rescuing the wounded, but bombs stuffed with mosquitoes infected with viruses like Ebola, or marble fever.

              The term "projection of medical power" is, as it were, difficult to associate with the provision of medical care, rather, with the infliction of maximum damage to the enemy by medical (or near-medical - the same biological weapon) methods.

        How covertly they explained their military aggression against other states:
        because our navies operate in contested battlespaces that are rapidly growing in lethality, complexity and scope - and we must be ready for the next battle now

    The US Navy will moor around the bases - on the mainland, the coast will be washed away by Russian Poseidons

        This is a defensive reaction of the psyche. Children hide under a blanket, and adult uncles hide under myth-making.

    Along the way, there will be a conflict with China soon or in BV .. And they won’t be able to do anything with Russia .. After the fall of Kyiv, the United States will begin to have conflicts around the world exponentially

      what is your conclusion based on? in the event of the fall of Kiev, even today, in any case, they are in the pluses, but today it will not be .. part of Russia will defeat its other part, having problems for years, and the Americans will lose? logic "iron", "Mikhanskaya" ..

      to the supply of internal donor organs. where there is war, there is always black transplantology. especially since Ukrainians are Europeans of the type. Is that why there are so many missing people?

        And also the manufacture of some means from people --- various medicines, extracts, serums, also make cosmetics and all sorts of other things. That is, sheer cannibalism and satanism

        The theme is eternal, it reaches out for any conflict, BUT ... it is tied to big money and very, very poor, influential faces, and they guard their "secrets" by any means.

        It is also an option ...
        The minke whales are climbing, bringing dermocracy to where it smells of big profits, in the first place.
        They can also for the sake of political, economic influence, which, after all, is also tied to profit ....

      Sharpen damask knives,

      Somehow they prepare. Do your cannibal business. Use people, young and healthy, for black business.

    What is the essence of the concept itself? Is this an article about nothing, or is the source material itself from the category of "strengthen, improve, deepen" and so on blah blah blah?

    U.S. Navy Medical Forces...
    And on earth "everything is fine, beautiful Marquise"?
    If things get really bad, doctors will be needed everywhere.
    And even worse, not doctors, but priests will be needed.
    And if it's even worse...
    We need to wake up and do what we can.
