Wednesday, April 16th, 2025

FULDA, GERMANY (10.04.2025)

Mehler Systems, together with its brands MehlerProtection, UF PRO, and Lindnerhof, successfully participated in SOFINS 2025—the premier European exhibition for Special Operations Forces. Held from April 1 to 3 at the military base in Martignas-sur-Jalle, France, the event brought together elite tactical units, defense industry leaders, and cutting-edge solution providers to engage in dialogue and present the next generation of mission-ready equipment.

Throughout the exhibition, Mehler Systems showcased an integrated portfolio designed to meet the complex requirements of modern mission profiles. Mehler Protection presented a range of ballistic protection systems developed for high-threat environments. Among them was the ExoM Up-Armoured Exoskeleton, offering full-body protection up to VPAM 8 while maintaining operator mobility. The M.U.S.T. System demonstrated the flexibility of modular body armour platforms, and the Omega Helmet Line delivered lightweight head protection. The brand also displayed a comprehensive array of ballistic panels, vests, and plate carriers tailored for the specific needs of special operations forces.

UF PRO introduced a selection of tactical garments engineered for performance across diverse climates and terrains. The Striker TT Combat Shirt and Pants offered breathable, durable solutions for hot and humid conditions, while the Monsoon XT Gen.2 Jacket and Pants provided dependable weather resistance in harsh, wet environments. For cold-weather operations, the AcEGen.2 Winter Combat Shirt delivered a balance of insulation and moisture regulation.

A highlight of the exhibit was The Beast, Lindnerhof’s heavy load-carrying system built to manage extreme weight while maintaining comfort and stability during prolonged missions.

The Four Stages of Competence in TCCC and TECC

Tuesday, April 15th, 2025

‘We do not rise to the level of our expectations. We fall to the level of our training.’ -Archilochus

Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) and Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC) are critical frameworks for managing trauma in high-stress, often life-threatening situations. Mastery of these skills can be understood through the lens of the four stages of competence, a model that outlines the progression from ignorance to expertise. Here’s how these stages apply to learning Tactical Trauma Care (TTC):

Unconscious Incompetence: Blissful Ignorance
At this initial stage, individuals are unaware of their lack of skill and knowledge. An untrained responder might not realize the importance of applying a tourniquet correctly or when to prioritize airway management in a trauma scenario. Without exposure to these concepts, they don’t even know what they don’t know. This stage ends either when training begins, and the gaps in knowledge become apparent, or when an actual trauma incident occurs.

Conscious Incompetence: Awareness of the Challenge
Once training starts, learners enter conscious incompetence. They now recognize the complexity of TTC skills but struggle to execute them effectively. Mistakes are common, and confidence is low. This stage is crucial, as it drives motivation to practice and improve, whether through simulated scenarios, guided learning, knowledge gathering or real-world application.

Conscious Competence: Deliberate Proficiency
With consistent practice and study, learners reach conscious competence. They can now apply TCCC techniques accurately, but it requires focus and deliberate effort. A medic at this stage might successfully stabilize a patient but still mentally walks through each step. They start to see and react to the casualty’s condition preemptively. Repetition and experience are key to moving beyond this phase along with continuing medical education.

Unconscious Competence: Instinctive Mastery
At the final stage, TTC skills become smooth, honed and second nature. Seasoned practitioners can perform life-saving interventions with ease, even in high threat environments. They no longer need to consciously recall protocols; their actions are swift, automatic, and effective. Their experiences and training control the chaos. This level of mastery is the goal for anyone operating in tactical or emergency environments.

The journey through these stages is not linear—it requires training, real-world exposure, and a personal commitment to refining skills. Whether in military or civilian contexts, progressing to unconscious competence can make the difference in “time is life” situations.

CTOMS™ has been providing tactical medicine to service organisations for nearly two decades. For more information on our in-person and online training, contact training@ctomsinc.com.
