“…Resource allocation becomes an important doctrine, given that casualties may overwhelm the treatment capacity of the supporting medical force, necessitating accurate and reliable triage to maximize survivors. Xie et al [8] proposed and successfully tested out a novel triage and medical evacuation system for naval warfare, helping to combat the limitations of existing triage systems and improve on triage efficiency. In the pre-hospital setting, techniques of Tactical Combat Casualty Care are also heavily emphasized and taught to medics entering the combat arena.…”

Since its establishment in 2014, MilitaryMedicalResearch has come a long way in becoming a premier journal for scientific articles from various different specialties, with a special emphasis on topics with military relevance. The field of military medicine may be obscure, and may not be readily encountered by the typical clinician on a day-to-day basis. This journal aims not only to pursue excellence in military research, but also keep current with the latest advancements on general medical topics from each and every specialty. This editorial serves to recap and synthesize the existing progress, updates and future needs of military medical excellence, discussing foremostly the unique traits of literature published in this journal, and subsequently presenting the discourse regarding wartime and peacetime medicine, the role of the military in a public health emergency, as well as wound healing and organ regeneration. Special attention have been devoted to military topics to shed light on the effects of Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Explosive (CBRE) warfare, environmental medicine and military psychiatry, topics which rarely have a chance to be discussed elsewhere. The interconnectedness between military combat and soldier physical and mental well-being is intricate, and has been distorted by pandemics such as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This journal has come a long way since its first article was published, steadily contributing to the existing knowledge pool on general medical topics with a military slant. Only with continuous research and sharing, can we build upon the work of the scientific community, with hopes for the betterment of patient care.

“…For those urgent or critical casualties who need further medical treatment, it is important to arrange air transport as soon as possible. Forward doctors report the patient’s information to the higher-level hospital before transportation so doctors can prepare efficiently to ensure the continuous treatment after transportation [ 32 ]. Various vehicles (military ships, military planes or civilian ships) should be used to rescue as many lives as possible during war.…”

There has been no large-scale naval combat in the last 30 years. With the rapid development of battleships, weapons manufacturing and electronic technology, naval combat will present some new characteristics. Additionally, naval combat is facing unprecedented challenges. In this paper, we discuss the topic of medical rescue at sea: what challenges we face and what we could do. The contents discussed in this paper contain battlefield self-aid buddy care, clinical skills, organized health services, medical training and future medical research programs. We also discuss the characteristics of modern naval combat, medical rescue challenges, medical treatment highlights and future developments of medical rescue at sea.

“…Xie et al 6 present designs of triage and medical evacuation systems for casualties at sea, including the storage and transmission of medical information during battlefield treatment and medical evacuation; their system consists of a medical information card, a multifunctional airbag triage vest and includes a triage classifier. Eastridge et al 7 present a novel triage algorithm that has been offered and evaluated in a combat environment based on Field Triage Score, whereas Jorma and colleagues8 present field experiences using a mobile radio frequency identification-based triage system.…”
