History

Real Life + Current SOTF History

Real-Life Alignment

Navy Medicine roles provide medical support to naval and Marine forces. Green-side corpsmen are Navy Hospital Corpsmen assigned to Marine formations and trained to provide medical care in field environments.

Current SOTF / V35 Use

On the current site, Navy Medicine supports the Field Corpsman path, 2nd Recon/Force Recon attachments, and medical command-profile history. Corpsmen remain Navy personnel attached to Marine formations.

Unit Association

This MOS is currently associated on the website with Navy Medicine / Marine Attached. Future member profiles should use the background image tied to the member's assigned unit association.

Command Profile Rule

When this MOS appears on a command profile, the profile must preserve the member's rank, unit, and MOS at the time of each billet, award, citation, or deployment. Current MOS changes should not overwrite older deployment history.

V35 / 3/5 heritage note: HM3 Armando G. Leal Jr. was posthumously awarded the Navy Cross while serving as a corpsman with Company M, 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines during Operation Swift in Vietnam. This is the real green-side legacy the SOTF corpsman track is meant to respect.

SOTF Responsibilities

These responsibilities mirror the real-world function of the MOS while keeping it usable inside SOTF MISFIT operations.

  • Move with Marine units and provide casualty care under field conditions.
  • Manage triage, casualty collection, and evacuation coordination.
  • Report casualty status clearly to squad, platoon, and command leadership.
  • Understand the Marine operating environment while retaining Navy medical identity.
  • Keep Navy rank/paygrade distinct from Marine MOS and rank categories.

Pipeline Progression

This pipeline separates real-world alignment from how SOTF will apply the role in-game.

  1. Real-life route: Navy accession, Hospital Corpsman training, and assignment to a medical or Marine-support billet.
  2. Green-side route: Field Medical Service Technician training and Marine unit attachment when assigned.
  3. Recon medical route: FMF Reconnaissance Corpsman, SARC, IDC, or SOIDC-style advanced training/assignment when qualified.
  4. SOTF route: Field Corpsman orientation, casualty-management evaluation, line attachment evaluation, and medical billet assignment.

Operational Employment

This MOS should be used when it gives the member a real task inside the formation. The role should support the commander, squad, airwing, recon team, medical section, or staff element in a way that matches the real-world purpose of the MOS.

Website Integration Notes

Command profiles using this MOS should follow the Kane West format: profile picture, rank and callsign, current role, deployment or prior-rank history where applicable, MOS/ADMOS, billet history, biography, qualifications, awards, citations, and a unit-associated background image.
