Paramilitary and military tactical personnel perform various activities utilizing a range of specialized skills. The activities they are required to perform, the load carriage of their ballistic personnel protective equipment and other operation equipment together with the stressors within the operations and the potential for injury death can cause in the moment as well as long-term implications for paramilitary and military tactical personnel. There is great potential to use engineering, computing and information technology to enable individualized and population-based assessment and development of health, wellness, resilience and adaption of paramilitary and military tactical personnel. In this chapter, we present opportunities and challenges for engineering, computing and information technology solutions for use with paramilitary and military tactical personnel.
