1ST RECONNAISSANCE BATTALION

Tactical Combat Casualty Care – Advanced Medical Training

1. Background: Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) for Combat Life Savers (CLS) with responsive patient models is a high priority for Marine Corps Forces in support of trauma training. To mitigate loss of life and severity of injury on the modern battlefield, all combatants and medical personnel must be proficient in the concepts of TCCC. Advanced medical training ensures that wounded personnel receive competent care on the battlefield to reduce mortality and morbidity from potentially survivable wounds.

2. Scope: 1st Reconnaissance Battalion requires contracted support to provide its Marines and Sailors with the necessary advanced medical training for future deployments. Deployed reconnaissance forces are employed beyond the forward line of troops, making it difficult for teams to receive medical assistance during combat operations. They require advanced medical training to improve survivability and mitigate risk to mission and force during combat operations. Other TCCC training modalities (manikins, moulage, and cadavers) are complementary training aids but do not offer the advanced level of training and experience required. Currently, responsive patient models are the only viable option for building the required level of training within budgetary limitations.
