正如在民间医疗实践中,只有通过记录和分析军事医疗经验,我们才能将过去的教训应用于未来的医疗实践,并改善军人的护理。如果第一次世界大战中的某些问题得到了承认和解决,它们在第二次世界大战中的重复是可以避免的。敌对行动的结束给我们带来一种如释重负的感觉,我们倾向于把这段经历抛在脑后。但是,我们必须继续为任何自然紧急情况做好准备,做到这一点的一个方法是研究过去,并将其教训纳入未来的行动。
As in civilian medical practice, only by recording and analyzing military medical experiences can we apply the lessons of the past to future medical practice and improve the care of military personnel. Had certain problems in World War I been recognized and addressed, their repetition in World War Il could have been avoided. The end of hostilities brings such a sense of relief that we are inclined to want to put the experience behind us. But we must remain prepared for any natural emergency, and one way to do that is to study the past and incorporate its lessons in future actions.
