BACKGROUND: This article reports the exploratory development and study efforts
regarding the viability of a novel "going-in light" or "Going Light" medical
component in support of US Army Pacific (USARPAC) Humanitarian
Assistance/Disaster Relief (HA/DR) missions, namely, a BLU-MED(®) incremental
modular equipment package along with a Rapid Deployment Medical Team (RDMT). The
study was conducted to uncover a way for the U.S. Army to: (1) better medically
support the greater U.S. military Pacific Command, (2) prepare the Army for
Pacific HA/DR contingencies, and (3) imprint a swift presence and positive
contribution to Pacific HA/DR operations. METHODS: The findings were derived from
an intensive quasi-Military Decision Making Planning (MDMP) process,
specifically, the Oracle Delphi. This process was used to: (1) review a needs
assessment on the profile of disasters in general and the Pacific in particular
and (2) critically examine the viability and issues surrounding a Pacific HA/DR
medical response of going in light and incrementally. RESULTS: The Pacific area
of operations contains 9 of 15 countries most at risk for disasters in the most
disaster-prone region of the world. So, it is not a matter of whether a major,
potentially large-scale lethal disaster will occur but rather when. Solid
empirical research has shown that by every outcome measured Joint Forces (Army,
Navy, Air Force, and Marines) medical HA/DR operations have been inordinately
successful and cost-effective when they employed U.S. Army medical assets inland
near disasters' kinetic impact and combined sister services' logistical support
and expertise. In this regard, USARPAC has the potential to go in light and
successfully fill a vital HA/DR medical response gap with the RDMT and a
BLU-MED(®). However, initially going in fast and light and expanding and
contracting as the situation dictates comes with subsequent challenges as briefly
described herein that must be addressed. CONCLUSIONS: The challenges to going in
light are not insurmountable "show stoppers." They can be identified and
addressed through planning and preparation. Hopefully, the acquisition rapid
response light components will equip commanders with more effective options with
which to conduct Pacific HA/DR operations and be a focal point for effective
joint operations.
