#Return fire and take cover.
#Direct or expect casualty to remain engaged as a combatant if appropriate.
#Direct casualty to move to cover and apply self-aid if able.
#Try to keep the casualty from sustaining additional wounds.
#Casualties should be extricated from burning vehicles or buildings and moved to places of relative safety. Do what is necessary to stop the burning process.
#Airway management is generally best deferred until the Tactical Field Care phase.
#Stop life-threatening external hemorrhage if tactically feasible:
#*Direct casualty to control hemorrhage by self-aid if able.
#*Use a CoTCCC-recommended tourniquet for hemorrhage that is anatomically amenable to tourniquet application.
#*Apply the tourniquet proximal to the bleeding site, over the uniform, tighten, and move the casualty to cover.
