Medical Readiness is of particular interest to the United States military since Congress reviewed the readiness of the medical forces after the Gulf War. Many different types of training must occur for our military forces to prepare for any type of deployment, ranging from specific technical skills to security briefings and sanitation practices at the units final base of deployment. The United States Air Force has seen an increased tasking in the area of Humanitarian and Civic Assistance (HCA) Missions so Medical Readiness personnel must consider how to continue training U. S. military forces for HCA missions. The HCA mission provides many benefits to those military members who are deployed. Military members are participating in a 'real world' situation (medical personnel are actually providing health care to people who need it), contributing practical training, and HCAs furnish a means of increasing indigenous populations' exposure to the United States military in a non-combat situation. Not only are military members working to prove technical skills, but they are worlding at nation building with the countries where they are deployed.
