295- Logistics For LSCO: Why SOF Med Supplies Fail When The War Changes (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Medical logistics was an afterthought for a lot of us in GWOT. You submitted a request, something showed up, and everyone joked that the warehouse never read the order. That model does not survive large-scale combat operations. In this episode, Dennis sits down with Jesse Bashel, a medical logistician and acquisitionist, to walk through how SOF medical supply is supposed to work—pre-deployment, on deployment, and after the first 15 days. They cover NSNs versus product names, automatic in-lieu su
SOMA 26' - Role 1.5: Fighting Tourniquet Syndrome at the Forefront (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ukrainian orthopedic and reconstructive surgeon describes what prolonged field care actually looks like when evacuation from the front line to Role 2 takes three to four days, and sometimes longer. After years of Role 1, Role 2, and evacuation-stage work, he focuses on a problem that now drives limb outcomes: tourniquet syndrome. TCCC made rapid tourniquet application routine; the neglected next step is conversion, replacement, and complication prevention when the casualty remains in the field f
294 - Do Antibiotics Really Reduce Mortality in Trauma? Wound Care First in Prolonged Field Care (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Antibiotics are not magic. In this episode of the PFC Podcast, Dennis sits down with Ryan to cut through the common myth that “I’ve given antibiotics, so the wound is protected.” They unpack why vigorous wound care—irrigation, debridement of dead tissue, clean dressings, and early surgical washout—remains the foundation of infection prevention in combat and prolonged field care, while antibiotics only shift the probabilities after the basics are done. Drawing on historical military medicine (pre
SOMA 26' - Fresh Whole Blood is Not The Answer: It's Still a Question (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Whole Blood Is Not a Solution (Until Conventional Forces Can Deliver It) Recorded live at SOMA 26 Dr. Vanessa Hanick (emergency physician, former active-duty Army, now National Guard) and 1SG Cy Clayton (Ranger Regiment veteran, currently a conventional Role 2 first sergeant) deliver a blunt assessment of a critical readiness gap: while whole blood is the agreed standard of care for damage control resuscitation, conventional forces remain largely unprepared to provide it in support of SOF or any
293 - Dead Tissue Kills in Prolonged Field Care: 4 C’s, Early Debridement & Delayed Primary Closure Lessons from the Field (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of the PFC Podcast, Dennis sits down with missionary surgeon Jason to cut through the noise on real-world wound care in austere and unconventional warfare environments. From the bridge two miles from the front to resource-scarce guerrilla settings, Jason shares hard-won lessons on getting tourniquets off, aggressive debridement, and keeping patients from dying of infection weeks later. You’ll hear why most tourniquets can (and should) come off early, how to use the 4 C’s (Color,
