Medical support to littoral manoeuvre.
My personal view, after some 16 years away from 3 Commando Brigade, is that there has been a vast improvement in the medical infrastructure, logistics and communications at Unit level. The defined treatment timelines provide medical staff with much needed leverage in securing scarce SH assets and the casualty evacuation plan from Role 1 to Role 2 is cogent and workable. The Role 2 capability is much more flexible and robust and can now be projected forward to where it is needed. And, of course, we are now supported by a superb Role 3 facility afloat. All in all medical support to Lit M is in good shape, even if we are all still "dripping" about our tents!
