Tactical First Aid Briefing - Lessons Learned

[Defender3]

I'm not a medic, just a cop type by trade, but I received this briefing (via e-mail) and was fascinated. It's 265 pages of lessons learned dealing with battlefield traumas from OEF/OIF. Its GRAPHIC and presented for information in the hope it spurs discussion amongst the professionals. My apology if it's a dupe or already appeared previously. The link is to my file factory account where the file (briefing) resides. It's 6mbs and you can download it for free. Thanks for all you do.

Not new, but always worth re-reading and fresh dialogue. You know, the whole thing that George Santayana talked about regarding needing to learn from the past so as to not make the same mistakes.
