One of my uncles was an ambulance driver during WWI. He was caught in a German mustard gas attack and suffered from lung problems for the rest of his life. His twin brother, my grandfather, was wounded fighting in France. After a hospital stay in Parism he rejoined the war. My father was wounded by a mortar mortar shell on Midway. All 3 had the highest praise for the medics who treated them.

My pops was in world war 2. When I was a kid and scraped my knee falling off a bicycle, he treated me like combat wound.

I was a combat medic in the 2010’s, they use dummies that weigh like 200 lbs per dummy, they have mechanical hearts & different dummies have different injuries, some will mess with the chest & force the dummy to stop “breathing”, depending on if you use a torniquet properly the dummy wil either stop bleeding or die from blood loss. Keep in mind: entry wounds will always be small. Exit wounds will always be larger. You also might NOT find an exit wound, or if you do it may not be directly behind an entrance wound.

Cleveland 1933 6 dead and 6 injured by one man. That's just for one country by one man and I got tired of typing. When exactly were there no mass shootings?

I've carried a first aid kit in my vehicle that is large enough for several badly wounded people. Had to use it once in the past 20 years, but it really helped out on that person who was bleeding badly.

A lot of this training still holds up today, and the interventions demonstrated in this video have only been improved upon with new equipment like vented chest seals, nasopharyngeal airway (NPA), and needle chest decompressors (NCDs). The biggest change in technique is to pack limb and junctional wounds with hemostatic (combat) gauze. The overall quality of the training material is also astounding for the time and technology available at the time of production; there wasn't CGI to fall back on in the 40s.

Great video, only thing that has changed is no sulfa tabs and newer gauze,and now made in color, combat first aid is self aid, buddy aid and then first aid. The number of casualties would over whelm a station and medics, the ones that could be saved is based on your capability and how long to the next aid station - same as today on a active battlefield. Take a first aid course and stay current as doing something is better than doing nothing.

That with gigarrette or tobacco you all should remember. It shrinks the veins and reduces bleeding. But the most difficult thing is to keep own head calm. And all wounded are not "still" ones...

A single trauma dressing (bandage) was the only standard-issue first aid dressing all the way up until the War on Terror. It's kind of stunning to me that trauma kits took that long to be improved. Now, I understand that GI's have packing gauze, hemostatic gauze, dedicated tourniquets, chest seals, and tracheal tubes. In other words, first aid accoutrements are a lot more specialized and a lot more numerous now. Still, it's interesting to me to see how they used to teach GI's to be resourceful and come up with improvized solutions.

Had an internal gut injury and nearly bled to death. The pain was indescribable. There is no escape when its a gut wound. Any position you're laying in will hurt. Breathing hurts. The worst was how my muscles contracted. They contracted so hard i broke my own ribs. Jesus just thinking about it makes me feel...I don't want to ever feel that much pain again. By the time they told me I could die I was ready for it just to stop the pain. I imagine that is the biggest comfort other people in those situations too. It was for me. Knowing that if I died that at least the pain would stop. Imagine getting stabbed in the gut and then being forced to do crunches with the knife still in your abdomen. Feeling your flesh and organs contract around the knife as someone twists it and pokes around inside of you. I spent 4 hours like that. Its one thing to yell or curse when you get hurt but to have the pain be so intense that you can do nothing but scream- I'd much rather be shot in the face.

@0x777

With head and torso, it highly depends on what gets damaged. There are few hits to the head that don't make you an instant #1 priority in any triage... more likely though, a 999. The head is incredibly fragile, any hit that even remotely deals with the brain is an instant death (save for a few freak cases like the one where a WW1 soldier had an unexploded grenade in his skull for years), and if you are "lucky" that you get shot sideways through the face portion of the skull, it's likely that due to the stress your neck will suffer. The "best" scenario would be a grenade splinter with limited power (maybe losing force by traveling through someone else first) hitting your jawbone. Personally, I think it's more merciful if it had aimed for the neurocranium. As for hits to the torso... let's imagine a hit below the chest because else it's either near certainly a hit to the heart (=death) or a hit to the lung (=pneumothorax -> lung collapse -> suffocation -> death). In this case you're in for a world of pain, first because of the damaged and destroyed muscle tissue and then because the fluids that fill your belly ain't exactly the most sanitary and your body doesn't like that one bit. In other words, try to get it into arms or legs. Survival chances are way better and you still can go home.
