title: [Combat psychiatry or psychiatrist on the battlefield?].
abstract: Military psychiatrists, close to the troops, during the external operations in which the French army is involved since some years, are reviving with an operational battlefield practice. What they owes to their predecessors is actually included in a discipline, a military institution, and a society which have evolved. Psychosocial psychiatric practicing, in such an opportunity, finds a privileged source of reflections and lessons. Some of them may be used beyond their initial specific frame.
