Depends: Depends on the severity of injury, and the medevac capabilities in the battle space. On the modern battlefield, injured servicemembers can usually be transported from the battlefield to a trauma-capable medical facility within one hour. Once stabilized, servicemembers can be aerovac'd out of the battle space to a major military hospital.
