摘要：	Providing casualty evacuation (CASEVAC) in the modern high-maneuver combat environment presents special problems. Small mobile units operating at increased distances from rear areas or sea-based platforms likely will not have the support of a Level 1B treatment facility such as a battalion aid station. With combat elements positioned far forward of their support units, ground evacuation may be impractical. Even evacuation by air may take more than the "Golden Hour" by which time trauma experts agree severely injured patients must receive some form of advanced lifesaving intervention. Needed is a specially equipped aeromedical asset manned by corpsman with appropriate skill levels to provide the necessary critical care interventions to stabilize severely wounded, injured or ill Marines for a period of transit that could last hours. The objective of this study was to determine what level of medical skills and what kind of medical equipment would be required for such a CASEVAC asset.
