Stuck on the last two:

30a: the lady's nursing fever cases
S---t-e-

31d: coarse companion putting hospital down
--r-h-

I'm also a bit confused on 36a:
Tackle insurgents' leader in army. I have heist but I'm not sure that is right. The letters are h-i-t

Thanks in advance.

sheathes?

earthy, from hearty?

Ho I ST.

hoist? host=army.

Thank you for all your help!
