Popis: Despite a younger cohort of individuals than typically found in other large organisations the Armed Forces are not free from cardiac disease. Indeed some conditions are more frequently found and the high risk occupations of individuals within the Armed Forces makes it imperative that all cardiac conditions are identified rapidly and correctly. By illustrating actual cases, we highlight the need for service personnel to have rapid access to expert cardiological expertise, from individuals with an in depth occupational knowledge of the Armed Forces, 365 days per year.
