As an RMO, are you likely to follow your Regiment (or elements of it) into the field (as in away from base) ?

Regimental Medical Officer
Hi Ashwin,
RMOs often deploy with their regiments. Their job is to provide care to their soldiers in the most practical and efficient way possible, this means they need to be in a location that is accessible to all their soldiers. That location may be stable, in a base, or it may be moving eg from a vehicle or on foot.
