Oxley Inc. - Putting The Rapid Into Tactical Shelter Deployment

摘要

Tactical shelters are rapidly evolving, improving almost as fast as today's 21st century armies and mobile hospitals around the globe can deploy them. But while shelters were becoming state-of-the-art in the late 90s, advances were not keeping pace. Chief among them -lighting.rnA major obstacle has been that, historically, mobile surgical units were illuminated by strings of fluorescents. That system was fraught with problems. The fragile fluorescent tubes had to be packed and delivered separately from the rest of a mobile unit's components, and sometimes installed after the unit had been erected on site, providing a framework for their installation. This made nocturnal operations extremely problematic. Military personnel often found themselves erecting the outdated units, at night, using the headlights of vehicles for illumination.
