150 REAL EXAM QUESTIONS AND CORRECT VERIFIED
ANSWERS/ ALREADY GRADED A+ (MOST RECENT!!)
1. What is the all-encompassing term used to describe both the Health Service
Support (HSS) and Force Health Protection (FHP) aspects of Army Medicine?
A) Medical Force Projection
B) Army Health System (AHS)
C) Theater Medical Command
D) Joint Medical Operations
Correct : Answer : B
Full Rotation & Rationale:
• Option A (Medical Force Projection) refers to the deployment and
sustainment of medical assets, but it is not the overarching term for HSS
and FHP.
• Option B (Army Health System) is correct. The AHS encompasses all HSS
and FHP functions, integrating casualty care, medical evacuation, medical
logistics, preventive medicine, and all other AMEDD capabilities into a
unified system supporting the warfighter.
• Option C (Theater Medical Command) is a specific command structure, not
the umbrella term for HSS and FHP.
• Option D (Joint Medical Operations) refers to medical operations across
multiple services, not the Army-specific term.
Key takeaway: AHS = HSS + FHP. This is the foundational definition tested on every
AMEDD BOLC exam.
2. What are the 6 Principles of the Army Health System?
pg. 1

A) Conformity, Proximity, Flexibility, Mobility, Continuity, Control
B) Speed, Accuracy, Reliability, Security, Survivability, Economy
C) Mass, Objective, Offensive, Surprise, Security, Simplicity
D) Detection, Diagnosis, Treatment, Evacuation, Recovery, Return
Correct : Answer : A
Full Rotation & Rationale:
• Option A is correct. The six AHS principles are: Conformity (medical plan
conforms to the tactical plan), Proximity (medical assets positioned close
enough to support maneuver forces), Flexibility (ability to adapt to
changing circumstances), Mobility (assets remain in supporting distance of
maneuver units), Continuity (patients move through progressive, phased
roles of care), and Control (scarce resources efficiently employed).
• Option B lists generic operational characteristics but not the AHS principles.
• Option C lists the principles of war (MOOSEMUS), not AHS.
• Option D describes a generic casualty care sequence, not the principles.
Key takeaway: Memorize the six principles — Conformity, Proximity, Flexibility,
Mobility, Continuity, Control.
3. Health Service Support (HSS) is best defined as:
A) Measures to promote, improve, or conserve the mental and physical well-being
of Service members
B) All support and services performed, provided, and arranged by the AMEDD to
promote, improve, conserve, or restore the mental and physical well-being of
personnel in the Army
C) The evacuation of casualties from the battlefield to CONUS hospitals
D) Preventive medicine and veterinary services only
Correct : Answer : B
Full Rotation & Rationale:
• Option A defines Force Health Protection (FHP), not HSS.
pg. 2
,3
• Option B is correct. HSS encompasses casualty care (medical treatment),
medical evacuation, and medical logistics — all services designed to restore
health.
• Option C describes only one component (evacuation) and is incomplete.
• Option D describes components of FHP, not HSS.
Key takeaway: HSS = treatment + evacuation + MEDLOG. FHP = prevention +
protection.
4. Force Health Protection (FHP) falls under which Warfighting Function?
A) Sustainment
B) Protection
C) Movement and Maneuver
D) Fires
Correct : Answer : B
Full Rotation & Rationale:
• Option A (Sustainment) is where HSS falls, but FHP falls under Protection.
This is a common exam trap.
• Option B (Protection) is correct. FHP includes preventive medicine,
veterinary services, laboratory services, dental services, and
combat/operational stress control (COSC) — all of which protect the force
from health hazards.
• Option C (Movement and Maneuver) relates to maneuver forces, not
medical protection.
• Option D (Fires) relates to indirect fire assets and targeting.
Key takeaway: HSS = Sustainment WFF; FHP = Protection WFF. Know this
distinction.
5. What are the three components of Health Service Support (HSS)?
pg. 3
, 4
A) Preventive Medicine, Veterinary Services, Laboratory Services
B) Patient Care, Medical Evacuation, Medical Logistics
C) Role 1, Role 2, Role 3
D) Care Under Fire, Tactical Field Care, Tactical Evacuation
Correct : Answer : B
Full Rotation & Rationale:
• Option A lists FHP components, not HSS.
• Option B is correct. The three components are: Patient Care (medical
treatment, hospitalization, dental, behavioral health, lab), Medical
Evacuation (MEDEVAC), and Medical Logistics (MEDLOG).
• Option C lists roles of medical care, not HSS components.
• Option D lists phases of Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TC3).
Key takeaway: HSS = Patient Care + MEDEVAC + MEDLOG.
6. What does FHP consist of?
A) Medical treatment, hospitalization, and MEDLOG
B) Operational health, veterinary services, COSC, dental services, and lab services
C) Only immunization and disease surveillance
D) Casualty evacuation and surgical care
Correct : Answer : B
Full Rotation & Rationale:
• Option A lists HSS functions.
• Option B is correct. FHP includes preventive medicine (operational health),
veterinary services (food inspection, zoonotic disease), combat and
operational stress control (COSC), dental services, and laboratory services.
• Option C is too narrow; FHP is broader.
• Option D describes HSS functions.
