Community-acquired pneumonia causes significant sanitary losses among military who undergo military service in the antiterrorist operation area. Factors contributing to the incidence of community-acquired pneumonia are unsatisfactory sanitary conditions, general hypothermia, previously and untreated acute respiratory infections. Despite achieved significant success in the medical-evacuation support of the military, with the involvement of the stage of rehabilitation treatment, the incidence rates of community-acquired pneumonia retain its dynamics for growth. It was investigated 227 patients with community-acquired pneumonia who entered a hospital treatment in one of the military mobile hospitals of the area of the antiterrorist operation in the period from April 2015 to December 2016. The diagnosis was captured by existing diagnostic capabilities of military mobile hospital. A significant drawback in the diagnosis of community-acquired pneumonia is an inability to conduct bacteriological and virological diagnosis of the pathogen.
