[@S.rosalie.lopez1]

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.

[@callsignkit6930]

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.

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.

[@roflmows]

1 - really doubt that happened. most of the Central Powers' gas attacks were over by the time the US entered the war, and they had strong anti-gas protocol in place by then. only a tiny number of US troops were ever exposed to gas. 2 - no he wasn't. there weren't any mortars used on Midway, which is a tiny coral atoll. there was just a very small detachment of Marines defending the power house there, and some injuries and deaths were incurred by Japanese bomb runs, but there was no shelling. 3 - so....your dad and uncle were twins, but Uncle fought in WW1 and your dad fought in WW2? your uncle would have had to be born around 1898 - 1900 if he were between the ages of 17 - 19, and most soldiers on all sides were average aged 25, so let's say he was 21 years old...he would be born around 1896. that would make your dad, his twin brother, about 46 years old on the date of Midway, June 1942..........he was in a Marine rifle company at the battle of Midway at 46 years old? a 46 year old Marine rifleman? you got your facts confused, or you're straight up telling tales, buddy.

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.

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.

Well according to Geneva Convention rules, the moment you tag an enemy then they're off the battlefield essentially. Of course that only applied to the U.S during the 1940s so Nazi/Japanese would be unusually fair to allow that, even not shot combat medics who tended to those wound in battle.

Nowadays, you normally shouldn't loss the tourniquet in the way the video suggests. Keep the tourniquet tight unless it's not a traumatic amputation AND the tourniquet has been safely replaced by hemostatic or pressure dressing or the application is later assessed to be unnecessary. The limbs can survive for more than 4 (IIRC) hours with the torniquete applied. I heard that there were saved limbs that were torniqueted for 12 hours. And if the torniquete has been applied for more than 2 hours, you shouldn't loose it. Definitely don't lose it if it's been there for more than 6 hours. DON'T forget to treat the exit wounds as well.

Likely the first time they started to take it seriously, but it's really hard to tell as propoganda would lead us to believe the war was always necessary as if the US was fighting defensively, however the US was mostly supporting allies of western Europe and trying to prove their might as a super power more than anything, so a lot of the tips given the videos come across as experimental. Still lead to a lot of vast improvements over the years as we now took the time to understand them, but there's reason to believe a lot of WWII veterans were guinea pigs for this stuff.

They did a poor job wrapping the bandage around the injuries. The wrapping should have been wound opened instead of twisted. That way, the wrapping covers both the top and bottom edges of the dressing, and a uniform pressure can be applied to the dressing

Share this with your local wannabe militia cosplayers

Last time I checked the Constitution still requires one. (Granted most armed citizens are out of shape and untrained if that's what you are referring to )

@@watch7966most militias here in America couldn’t run a mile without constant breaks. Too much McDonald’s and beer.

Minus the advice on tourniquets and cigarettes, many of those ideas are still taught today.

Glad it's black and white, and not color.

Yeah this was amazingly realistic for 1943 or whatever it was

[@jayhockley8841]

@@JohnDoe-on6ru Some comments say those are real wounds .

[@JohnDoe-on6ru]

@@jayhockley8841 Nah they would have looked at the cameraman asking him wtf he's doing and been shouting more

[@bigprojects2560]

Another way you can tell it's not real is blood stains a lot. The blood here runs like water and doesnt stain the skin or clothes as much

[@jonjojo2885]

Ok what if their dead like totally dead heart stopped beating

[@bigprojects2560]

There's not much you can do at that point without further medical knowledge or tools

[@TronBonneVonne]

You are SOL if they are dead. Unless you have a medical tent nearby to stabilize someone who had their heart stop...you are brown bread

[@tapup708]

so ur not gonna help the guy u just shot in the back???

[@Anatloe]

it was a different guy

[@watch7966]

He died after 2 seconds because it is Hollywood.

Sulfonamide

[@oliveradams1270]

So other than blood plasma and morphine what did medics know

[@michaelmoslak2975]

Give the wounded man a drink from his canteen and a cigarette! LOOOL Try asking for a cigarette today if you're sure to die and want one last one.

[@Frank_Nemo]

I'm surprised that there was no advice for tending to a paper cut or insect bites.

[@0x777]

That was dealt with in the version for the logistics troops.

[@mariegulley7909]

Morphine lots of morphine. Or diacetylmorphine or methadone will work in a pinch lol

[@FellOnMyKeys]

They did have half grain (32mg) syrettes of Morphine Tartrate they can take. Onset of action is 15 min tho with IM administration
