IS IT POSSIBLE TO RETURN MILITARY TO THE FRONT AFTER SEVERE WOUNDS?

Reading time: 3 min.

As sad as it would be to talk about it, at the moment questions have arisen about whether an injured serviceman can return to the front. After being wounded, servicemen and their relatives are interested in the question of further service in the army and returning to frontline positions. If you analyze the current legislation, you can get answers to all these questions, but it is not easy to understand the nuances of military service. But about everything in order.

Wounds and subsequent service

It is clear that after receiving an injury, a person needs to undergo treatment for a certain period of time. This period can take from several weeks to several months. After the end of the treatment, a military medical commission is convened, which issues a conclusion on the suitability and ability to continue military service as a serviceman. The commission's conclusion depends on the injury received and the degree of disability. For example, if as a result of an injury, according to the commission's conclusion, a serviceman cannot serve in the future, then he is released from service due to his health. But if the Military Medical Commission in its conclusion indicates that the serviceman can serve in the future, then he can be returned to the front. That is, the return of servicemen to the front after being wounded is possible according to the conclusion of the Military Medical Commission.

Further service

After being wounded, taking into account the conclusion of the Military Medical Commission, a person can either be sent to the front or transferred to serve in another part in accordance with the recommendations of the Military Medical Commission. It should be remembered that receiving a wound does not give grounds for release from military service.

If a serviceman does not agree with the decision of the Military Medical Commission on the possibility of further service, he can appeal this decision to a higher authority or to a court.

Therefore, to answer the question of whether it is possible to return soldiers to the front after serious injuries, the following can be noted:

  • First of all, the law does not expressly prohibit returning wounded persons to the front. This does not mean that it will happen quickly, but after the necessary treatment and rehabilitation, servicemen can return to the front line again.
  • Secondly, they do not have the right to be sent to the front without proper treatment and a conclusion of the Military Medical Commission about the possibility of continuing service. That is, the military hospital in which a person is being treated after being wounded must issue a referral to the Military Medical Commission.

But, if you understand that the Military Medical Commission was conducted with violations, there is an opportunity to appeal the decisions. It is clear that it is not easy to understand the intricacies of military law on your own, because it is not easy to determine whether a specific injury falls under one or another norm.

If such questions and problems arise, do not neglect the help of specialists. It must be remembered that it is not possible to return to the front after severe injuries and without the conclusion of the Military Medical Commission. And military law lawyers will help to understand all the nuances of a specific case.
