520 | _aA recent article in the RAMC journal sparked media interest in the state of air medical evacuation for wounded military personnel. This article 'looks at the development, provision and use of aeromedical aircraft, focusing on the development and resourcing of air evacuation.' Traces the history of air casualty evacuation from the First World War and includes the use of helicopters during the Malay Emergency, a role that helicopters have continued to fulfil ever since although expectations often do not match practical realities. | ||
