U.S. Army Reserve Maj. Gen. Michael L. Yost, commanding general of the Pinellas Park, Florida-based Army Reserve Medical Command, gave a keynote address to reserve medical officers at the Interallied Confederation of Medical Reserve Officers Jan. 30, 2025, at the organization's Mid-Winter Meeting held at NATO headquarters in Brussels. The general told the officers that as the battlefield changes, battlefield medicine must change. The organization, which is also known by its French acronym CIOMR, draws its members from more than a dozen NATO allied nations in order to foster cross-national fellowship and discuss and collaborate on future military medical endeavors.
