- Summary
- The Army is in the process of transforming itself and is developing new operational concepts and technologies to enable this transformation. The Army Medical Department (AMEDD) has been deeply involved in the overall Army transformation effort since its inception, and it has identified operational medicine issues whose resolution will be critical to its ability to support the Army of the future. The purpose of this research was to develop a method to assess these issues and further investigate a subset of them. RAND Arroyo Center designed and conducted a series of workshops in which AMEDD experts determined likely outcomes for individual casualties resulting from an Army simulation of its future force. It was concluded that in this particular simulation, the structure and concepts postulated for the evacuation and treatment of future force combat casualties were overwhelmed by eight hours of relatively low-intensity combat.
