The authors review conditions of establishment of the Hungarian Military Medical Contingent. They discuss problems met during the preparation phase, and briefly describe the curriculum of a pre-deployment training program, during which mission-oriented foreign language medical training appears as a new element. They describe the work done by the Contingent and its successful integration into the multinational medical support system of International Security Assistance Forces (ISAF) in Afghanistan. They give details on the role of Hungarian military medical personnel in providing medical support after a terrorist act against German forces on June 7, 2003, and also the Hungarian role played in elaboration of a new Mass Casualty Plan of the German Field Hospital deployed in Kabul, Afghanistan. They focus on stress factors affecting Hungarian soldiers (both regular ones and medical personnel) deployed in Afghanistan and Iraq, and coping methods to prevent Post Traumatic Stress Disorders. Finally, the authors describe opportunities to improve multinational medical co-operation.
