New medical training for all services on the way

Thank you, my friend SSG(P) (Join to see) for making us aware about the training rollout of Tier 2 Tactical Combat Casualty Care

"Soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines might all soon have new training on how to save their buddy’s life in the first critical minutes of injury in combat.
That’s because the curriculum, known as Tier 2 Tactical Combat Casualty Care, could become the new, uniform standards of methods taught to troops with non-medical jobs if approved by the Pentagon.
The Pentagon directed the new standardized care, which consists of four levels of skill, all aimed at the initial response that troops can provide in combat scenarios, according to an Army statement. A recommended plan will be sent to the Pentagon at the end of December.
The TCCC would replace Combat Lifesaver Training, pulling in the most up-to-date medical lessons learned from the past two decades of combat, said Army Lt. Col. Ethan Miles, chairman of the Tier2/Combat Lifesaver Working Group."

Good stuff. Lots of new medical stuff and different ways of doing things...

I'm scratching my head on this. I took CLS last year and it was already TCCC based and exactly as the "new" training is described.
