Book Reviews of US Army Special Forces Medical Handbook

Book Review: Air Force Medic
Summary: 5 Stars

Few people get hurt more often than military members, and they are very imaginative in the ways they find to damage themselves. (Like the drunken [guy] who rocked a vending machine while trying to steel a pop, and instead got the whole machine which smashed him flat.) Whereas there was not a lot his buddies could have done for him, most of the injuries I see could have been ameliorated had someone known what to do. I wish more people knew more about basic first aid. Many times, when people die in car crashes or whatever, the person could have been saved with some very basic, very easy steps. Stop the bleeding, open the airway, etc. Please read this book. Sooner or later, the little things you learn will almost surely come in handy. I'm tired of seeing injured people totally untreated until the ambulance arrives when there are often a dozen or more adults around who just do not know what to do.

Summary of US Army Special Forces Medical Handbook

The finest book on basic First Aid available; this manual is based on a great deal of experience under primitive conditions. Chapters include basic life saving first aid, opening the airway and restoring breathing, stop bleeding, treat for shock, first aid for common emergencies. Also, contents of first aid case and kits. Very well illustrated. Do not let yourself or your buddy die; read this book!
