[Epidemic-control support for the combat operations of the Soviet troops in Afghanistan in light of the experience of World War II].
The article summarizes the experience of antiepidemic support of combat operations of the Soviet troops in Afghanistan. The basic antiepidemic principles which were worked out during the Great Patriotic war are still actual and must be used in organization of antiepidemic measures in local wars and military conflicts. The following aspects are of most practical significance in this matter: sanitary-epidemic reconnaissance, pre-operational readiness of troops, preventive measures to interdict the spreading of the infection to the cantonment areas when the units return from combat operations.
