Mutual support and mobilization preparedness: the method of an Army Reserve hospital.
Military literature fails to describe a successful methodology for developing and implementing active Army/active Army Reserve mutual medical support and mobilization planning. The author presents a method for addressing these critical issues that evolved over a period of 11 years between the 3274th Army Hospital (1000B), a Reserve unit in Durham, North Carolina and its CAPSTONE, Womack MEDDAC, Ft. Bragg, North Carolina. The principles utilized here are believed to be applicable to similar Table of Organization & Equipment Armed Forces Reserve Medical Units. Additional advantages of the method are that it enhances recruitment and retention, and maximizes the medical skills of Reserve medical personnel.
