title: Medical support of the Sinai Multinational Force and Observers: an update, 1990.
abstract: The Multinational Force and Observers in an 11-nation peacekeeping force established to monitor the 1979 Egyptian-Israeli Treaty of Peace. Provision of medical support for this force was the first employment of the U.S. Army Medical Department in an effort of this kind. This article is an update to "Medical Support of the Sinai Multinational Force and Observers, 1982," published in Military Medicine in October 1983. We compare the execution of medical support in 1982 with that of 1990 and describe medical conditions and problems encountered during our tour.
