[Afghanistan-a dermatologist on military deployment]. Hautarzt. 2020 May 14;: Authors: Frieß M Abstract Medical officers may choose to practice as physicians while being soldiers. The initial civil training in medical school is later supplemented by military training and preparation for future missions abroad. All medical officers, regardless of their specialty as physicians, are employed on these missions. In the course of this, training in emergency medicine is the basis for the medical foundation for everyone. As a dermatologist deployed on a mission in Afghanistan, knowledge in emergency medicine and dermatology could be combined favorably. As a result, the professional guideline to provide medical aid for soldiers on mission in a comparable way to the coverage at home could be realized.
