[Health and hygiene support for the troops].
As for prophylactic work, the main efforts of medical service were oriented to the reduction of non-combat medical losses. Prophylactic and current control was conducted taking into account the environmental conditions of the area. The authors make a conclusion that medical service at the initial stage of its activities was not properly ready to accomplish a variety of hygienic missions. It was especially difficult to carry out prophylactic measures aimed at the prevention of diseases and health states which were caused by specific environmental factors.
