Introduction


During actual combat, military operations continue around the clock at a constant pace, and often under severe weather conditions. Terrible things happen in combat. During such periods the soldier's mental and physical endurance will be pushed to the limit. Psychological first aid will help sustain the soldier's mental/physical performance during normal activities, and especially during military operations under extremely adverse conditions and in hostile environments.
