CMC personnel will have to prepare for the mission tasks in a combat environment every time. As medical personnel, you must adapt to current information about your upcoming deployment.
Enemy tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) constantly evolve, and should constantly be reevaluated, which in turn may change your medical equipment recommendations. Using threat-based planning (understanding available medical assets, intrinsic and local medical capabilities, and potential casualties, including evolving wound patterns) will provide medics with the information needed to organize their Aidbags more effectively. Knowing your support capabilities, such as theatre operations movement assets, will assist you in packing for your deployment. Given the differences in medical provider training and supplies within each Service, you may deploy with a different medical bag.
