COMBAT CASUALTY 1
FORT BENNING, Ga. – At Fort Benning’s Medical Simulation Training Center on Bass Road Dec. 4, medics, instructors and others from across the armed services discuss fine points of a lifesaving technique they’re about to practice by using a mannequin serving as a mock combat casualty. They were part of a group of about 40 service members and civilians who gathered at Fort Benning for a close review of a new curriculum that would be used to teach service members a type of battlefield first aid that the U.S. military calls Tier 2 Tactical Combat Casualty Care. The Pentagon plans to make Tier 2 TCCC the new standard for all services. It will replace what is known as Combat Life Saver training, which has been in use for some years. A final draft of the curriculum is to be delivered to the Department of Defense Dec. 31.
