Military surgery is a complex discipline that has progressed far beyond triage and the debridement of battle wounds. The evolution of modern warfare now demands that the combat surgeon be knowledgeable in military tactics, logistics, transport of personnel, trauma surgery, tropical medicine, public health, industrial medicine, and special weapons, as well as have a familiarity with the organizational structure and culture of the military services. This complexity qualifies military surgery as a subspecialty of surgery according to the criteria of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). Accreditation of military surgery as a defined specialty should be sought because that recognition will produce better care for our troops, improve education of military medical personnel, and stimulate research.
军事外科是一门复杂的学科，其发展已远远超越了伤病员分类和战伤清创术。现代战争的演变如今要求作战外科医生熟悉军事战术、后勤、人员运输、创伤外科、热带医学、公共卫生、工业医学和特殊武器，同时还要熟悉军事服务的组织结构和文化。根据毕业后医学教育认证委员会（ACGME）的标准，这种复杂性使军事外科成为外科学的一个亚专业。应寻求将军事外科认定为一个特定专业，因为这种认可将为我们的部队提供更好的护理，改善军事医疗人员的教育，并促进研究。
