RESUMO
The Legouest military training hospital is one of the eight hospitals of the armed forces health service. Situated in the Grand-Est region, one of the regions most affected by the COVID-19 epidemic in spring, it had to reorganise itself within a few days with its regional and national partners. While continuing to support forces sent abroad, to overseas territories or located in the East of France, the armed forces hospital had three major missions: the support of other military hospital facilities, the continued care of non-COVID patients and the care of patients affected by COVID-19 requiring non-intensive hospital care.

The many constraints and psychologically demanding situations to which French soldiers are subjected (living conditions, operational pace, scenes of exaction, hostile crowds, combat situations) have justified a psychiatrist being posted to the theatre of operation Sangaris, in the Central African Republic, soon after the military intervention began. While the psychiatrist's activity is typical of psychiatry in operational situations,.the configuration of the conflict- a civil war - and its impact on the psyche of the soldiers making up the task force have resulted in these practices being adapted and acknowledgement of the need to update skills.
