Colonel Warner “Rocky” Farr has made an important contribution to the  body of SOF knowledge with this well-researched monograph. He advances  the understanding of the many challenges and accomplishments related to  guerrilla warfare medicine—care provided by predominantly indigenous  medical personnel under austere conditions with limited evacuation  capability— by providing a survey of the historical record in UW  literature. Colonel Farr relates many historical experiences in the  field, assesses their effectiveness, and lays a foundation for further  in-depth study of the subject. The Joint Special Operations University  is pleased to offer this monograph as a means of providing those  scholars and operators, as well as policymakers and military leaders, a  greater understanding of the complex and complicated field of guerrilla  warfare medicine.
