The Navy Nurse and combat with a focus on the casualty processing unit.
This article describes a flexible and versatile tri-care triage medical system within a combat arena in which the Navy nurse, integrating with other factions of the military, provided the injured sailor and Marine consistent and optimal care. A systemized approach to casualty flow created a simple, multi-purposed, and accelerated system that proved effective to both fighting troops and military operations. Personal experiences in the Desert Storm arena focused on the advantage of short-distance evacuations.
