Our orders are delivered strictly on time without delay 
Purpose To demonstrate an understanding of the AHS Warfighting Functions.
Background Information
The Army Health System (AHS) is a component of the Military Health System that is responsible for the operational management of the Health Service Support Mission (HSS) and the Force Health Protection Mission (FHP).
The Army Health System medical capabilities (ten medical functions) are grouped under two Army warfighting functions – Force Health Protection (FHP) under the protection warfighting function and Health Service Support (HSS) under the sustainment warfighting function. These interrelated and interdependent medical functions are complex in nature and require medical command and control for synchronization and integration. This ensures the interrelationships and interoperability of all medical assets and optimizes the effective functioning of the entire system.
Discussion Question
Identify the six warfighting functions and describe the purpose of the Protection warfighting function and the Sustainment warfighting function. Next, identify your Military Occupation Specialty (MOS) and which warfighting function that it supports and how it supports it. End your initial post by asking your peers an open-ended question on one of the warfighting functions.
