The book will look at advances in medicine and surgery that improved the lot of the American soldier. In particular, the book will examine the impact of disease upon troop strength, which had special impact in the Revolutionary War through the post-Civil War period. Forward surgery in the modern sense came of age in World War I. The challenge of so many different theaters of conflict in World War II will be examined from the portable surgical hospital of the China-Burma-India Theater of Operations to the surgical evacuation hospital teams of the European Theater of Operations. The evolving care models will feature the story of the Korean War mobile army surgical hospital. The defining performance of helicopter air evacuation in Vietnam, along with improved surgical techniques, will be discussed. Finally, the many advances of forward surgery from the post-Vietnam era to the present will be presented."},{title:"Some System of the Nature Here Proposed: Joseph Lovell`s Remarks on the Sick Report, Northern Department, U.S. Army, 1817, and the Rise of the Modern US Army Medical Department",imageUrl:"FileDownloadpublic.aspx?docid=ee8ba119-7e75-4e6d-8cca-7e5483a187f8",link:"bookDetail.aspx?ID=6726be0e-a68f-467e-b964-f58b157e4880",year:2015,description:"A regimental surgeon promoted to hospital director in the War of 1812, Joseph Lovell, MD, became the first Army staff-level surgeon general. This volume in Borden`s history of medicine series is an in-depth analysis of how Lovell`s report on Army medicine just after the war gave rise to innovations, from focus on the soldier`s welfare and preventive medicine to accurate epidemiology and experimental research, that formed the organizational and functional principles of today`s professional and effective Medical Department."},{title:"US Army Psychiatry in the Vietnam War: New Challenges in Extended Counterinsurgency Warfare",imageUrl:"FileDownloadpublic.aspx?docid=d07b0b39-6789-45dd-80a5-f0741f9a591f",link:"bookDetail.aspx?ID=68f93226-ac0d-4e79-a92f-9033426de0ad",year:2014,description:"During the Vietnam War (1965-1973), the US Army suffered a severe breakdown in soldier morale and discipline in Vietnam - matters that not only are at the heart of military leadership but also ones that can overlap with the mission of Army psychiatry. The psychosocial strain on deployed solders and their leaders in Vietnam, especially during the second half of the war, produced a wide array of individual and group symptoms that thoroughly tested Army psychiatrists and their mental health colleagues there. In the aftermath of the Vietnam War, the Army Medical Department apparently intended to sponsor a history of Army psychiatry along with other medical specialties, but that project was never begun. This book seeks to consolidate a history of the military psychiatric experience in Vietnam through assembling and synthesizing extant information from a wide variety of sources, documenting the successes and failures of Army psychiatry in responding to the psychiatric and behavioral problems that changed and expanded as the war became protracted and bitterly controversial."},{title:"Good Tuberculosis Men: The Army Medical Department`s Struggle With Tuberculosis",imageUrl:"FileDownloadpublic.aspx?docid=60b29fa6-f20b-4a4e-9024-9a2dd25bb45c",link:"bookDetail.aspx?ID=a08901a6-f6dd-4387-b663-fa0fa9a19c02",year:2014,description:"In 1917, as the United States prepared for war in Europe, Army Surgeon General William C. Gorgas recognized the threat of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to American troops. What the Army needed was some good tuberculosis men. Despite the efforts of the nation`s best tuberculosis men, the disease would become a leading cause of World War I disability discharges and veterans benefits. The fact that tuberculosis patients often experienced cycles in which they recovered their health and then fell ill again challenged government officials to judge the degree to which a person was disabled and required government care and support. This book tracks the impact of tuberculosis on the US Army from the late 1890s, when it was a ubiquitous presence in society, to the 1960s when it became a curable and controllable disease."},{title:"Skilled and Resolute: A History of the 12th Evacuation Hospital and the 212th MASH, 1917-2006",imageUrl:"FileDownloadpublic.aspx?docid=5235fb02-c7a7-491d-b817-31f5b0b434c1",link:"bookDetail.aspx?ID=e8fb65dd-4a98-4b49-bfcb-369f273c9677",year:2014,description:"Tracing the 90-year history of the US Army`s oldest deployable hospital, this book looks at how medicine and the military have changed in these decades.
