The Medical Corps provides medical support for the Reichwehr as a whole. Forces Medicine is almost entirely limited to the practice of military medicine (i.e. - treating battlefield casualties) in the theater of operations (TO). Outside the TO and all other fields of medicine, the Corps relies on the support of the civilian Staatlicher Gesundheitsdienst (National Health Service).

abstract
| - The Medical Corps provides medical support for the Reichwehr as a whole. Forces Medicine is almost entirely limited to the practice of military medicine (i.e. - treating battlefield casualties) in the theater of operations (TO). Outside the TO and all other fields of medicine, the Corps relies on the support of the civilian Staatlicher Gesundheitsdienst (National Health Service). One practical effect of this arrangement is that Forces Medical personnel usually have little to do in their chosen field of battlefield trauma unless there are soldiers actually engaging the enemy somewhere. Therefore, many Medical personnel are regularly assigned to NHS hospitals or clinics. When needed, these personnel are swiftly transferred to their pre-positioned equipment and deployed to the field as an Army Medical unit.
