TY - JOUR PY - 1992// TI - A mass casualty while in garrison during Operation Desert Storm JO - Military medicine A1 - Satava, R. M. A1 - Modesto, V. L. SP - 299 EP - 300 VL - 157 IS - 6 N2 - In the theater of operations, rear echelon hospitals by doctrine receive patients who have been stabilized by forward hospitals. Occasionally, mass casualties will occur in the rear area, but rarely from combat causes. This report documents a mass casualty occurring in garrison from an anti-tank weapon misfiring. All rear echelon hospitals, regardless of their mission, must be prepared for the acute care of combat mass casualties.
