Sorry about the incoherent message, I started to hit cancel then hit send instead

The answer is I'm sure it's planned out and would depend on whether we were talking about full scale hostilities or the occasional mishap.

Either Ron Gross or Richard Wigle should be able to answer this in detail,  
but I'd bet that there's a fair chance that casualties from Korea would be  
staged either through Camp Zama, Japan or Kadena AFB, Okinawa enroute to 
Tripler  AMC, and thence Stateside.

I was  just wondering.   Just IF there are significant US Soldiers   
wounded 
(even by accident) in Korea, would they be brought to Landsthul  Army  
Hospital in Germany (HIGHLY VISABLE AND SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM VIA  JTTS),  or  
to 
Tripler Army Hospital in Hawaii?     Is there a  network infrastructure in 
place in the Pacific,  like there is in Europe and the  Middle East?      I 
am  
certain that this has been  discussed at the highest levels and put  into 
place, as this JTTS, CCAT, Trauma,  QA, Trauma Registry, TBI,  etc. program 
has 
been one of the most successful in  the history of  military medicine.     
I 
would have thought  that  USUHS or JTTS, or ISR, or ASD HA have long ago 
discussed such  contingency  plans.     We in the civilian sector could  
also learn, 
both  for routine trauma and for disaster medical   preparedness.
