2.0 out of 5 stars Obsolete, July 13, 2000
By Charles L. Mccomas (Charlotte, NC USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a civilian reprint of the 1983 ST31-91B. The issue version with it's waterproof pages is a collectors item and not worth much else. Both versions are now very outdated in much of their treatment and management of illness/injury. Frankly when I first got the book in 1983, I didn't find it's sparse outline presentation of information very useful. You can find more current information, better presented in some of the newer books on Wilderness Medicine

4.0 out of 5 stars Airborne Medic's Review, November 19, 2006
I was a medic in the 82nd Airborne a few years after this book was published. I found it to be invaluable for review of proceedures that I had been taught in regular Army training. Like the Ranger Handbook, it is not meant to be the primary learning source, but rather a review of things a soldier had already be trained to do. Also like the Ranger Handbook, it accomplishes this purpose extremely well. It would've been of even more use, had I been an 18D - Special Forces Medic

4.0 out of 5 stars A must have for operational forces!, September 10, 2008
By P.-M. C. L. "Paul" (Iraq, Normally Hawaii) - See all my reviews
A must have for operational forces! It cover a broad range of items that will give you valuble information. Unless you are a doctor, you need this book while on the ground! The only problem, it's not that easy to find the information you need quickly.
