What is the kind of doctor/surgeon that helps wounded soldiers? Is there even a specific name?

Does this kind of doctor travel abroad to help their country's soldiers? Is the education for this type of doctor harder than a, lets say, family practice doctor or a general surgeon who works in a regular hospital in the United States? Thanks in advance.|||You're a field surgeon. Once you're a doctor, if you apply to the military the chances are you will get hired, depending on how well you did.





I think that applying to the military would definitely incur some combat training or other training in the field that you wouldn't have been taught in medschool. But, as a doctor, its not difficult to be trained, which you will be by the military, in the art of field medicine.





Not much different, you will be taught to live and work in strained conditions I would think.
