Abstract:
In 1985 the U.S. Department of Defense took action to establish regulations for the protection of national defense personnel against the AIDS epidemic. Since that time specific procedures have been carried out in each military unit to effectively handle soldiers infected with the AIDS virus. A unique six-stage classification system for monitoring disease progression of AIDS is currently used in military medical facilities around the world, and military medicine remains active in the fight against AIDS.
