RB, you can type up a DNR letter and have it translated, then give one to your doctor for your file. If you've been to the hospital nearest you already, you can give them one also for your file. The only glitch is if no one pulls your file before they try to resucistate.

The bigger glitch socal is having to put it on file with all hospitals that he could be potentially taken to, if and or when he keeled over.

Also Doc's here, like anywhere, have a tendency to try and save the patient prior to looking to see what their name is and if they have any files on the guy or gal they are working on. Plus if he does have a Doc that he regularly goes to for care that Doc may or may not have a working relationship with any of the area's larger hospitals either. There is quite a bit of leg work he would have to do to get this done in the first place, and even then the hospitals may not accept it either.

There is no such thing as a family practitioner off base per say. And the major hospitals that are designated as emergency centers might not even take a DNR request in the first place as well.

Get a mini suicide vest that blows up inward and have it wired to your heart. If it stops the vest blows. Nothing left to rescesitate. Save money on burial fees too!

If the vest is rigged right the rain will wash what ever is left away.

Could always tattoo "just let me die" in japanese on either chest or forehead. If he's going to a hospital they will strip the shirt of and see it when they go to place sensors and such. But I recommend the forehead so that it's easily noticed in the field. Plus, if they don't see it when it's on the forehead it probably means the forehead is missing and you won't have to worry anyway.
