I talked to USJFCOM’s Command Surgeon Navy Rear Adm. Michael H. Mittelman and his staff about the 15th annual Joint Task Force (JTF) Senior Medical Leader Seminar (SMLS). The SMLS will be held at the Old Dominion University’s Virginia Modeling, Analysis & Simulation Center from July 28 – 31 2009.
The seminar will focus on irregular and hybrid warfare and the implications for future JTF medical leaders.
“This is the course where we bring in senior medical leaders basically from all the services and literally all over the world so we can train them to act in the capacity of a JTF surgeon and deal with the complexities of current and future joint operational environments,” Mittelman said.
The four day seminar will have presentations from senior medical personnel and will include the Joint Operational Environment (JOE) and Capstone Concept for Joint Operations (CCJO), an overview of each service’s medical support to the joint force and operational perspectives from the office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs and the Joint Staff.
If you’re interested in attending please apply through your service or organization.
