US ARMY FIRST AID MANUAL FOR SOLDIERS

The Army is prepared to meet any foe in every conceivable corner of the globe. This is the Army's recently declassified official manual on how to render first aid to soldiers who suffer from every conceivable injury or illness. It is the most useful first aid guide available, covering a broad range of topics in precise, easy-to-understand language. Medical personnel, as the Army again points out, are not always available in the field, and soldiers who have to rely on their own skills and knowledge to survive. Army First Aid for Soldiers addresses the skills and knowledge necessary for many life-threatening situations, with emphasis on treating oneself and aiding others. More importantly, the manual emphasises prompt and effective action in sustaining life and preventing or minimizing further suffering.
