Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Directions for Preserving the Health of Soldiers: Addressed to the Officers of the Army of the United States Fatal experience has taught the people of America that a greater proportion of men have perished with sickness in our armies than have fallen by the sword. The two last campaigns pro duced melancholy proofs of this assertion. But we ought to consider upon this occasion, not only the mere loss of those worthy citizens who perished in this manner. The complicated distress, which accompanied their sickness and death, should never be forgotten. The gallant youth who had torn him self from the arms of his parents, or the partner of his joys, who had'plighted his life to his country in the field, and who perhaps, in the enthusiasm of his military ardor, has courted death from a musket or a cannon ball, was often forced from the scene of action and glory by the attack of a fever, and obliged to languish for days or weeks in a hospital; and, at last, to close his eyes, deprived of the sweet con solation of a dying soldier, the thoughts of ending his life in the arms of victory, or in an act of just resentment against the enemies of the liberties of hiscountry.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Observations on the Means of Preserving the Health of Soldiers and Sailors, and on the Duties of the Medical Department of the Army and Navy: With Remarks on Hospitals and Their Internal Arrangement It has been very generally remarked, that diseases in an army or navy destroy more than the sword; to combat these therefore, with success, both policy and humanity ought to induce governments to direct their attention to the regulation of the medical department. Those who are acquainted with public ser vice will, doubtless, acknowledge the propri ety of system and regularity in all the vari ous departments of the army and navy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Keep Well: The Chicago Record's Hygienic Manual for United States Soldiers in the Field More or less exposed during the progress of an active campaign. In our army in times of peace the number of deaths occurring from disease in a year is only about 4 in every men, or 1 death among 250 men, while during the years of the civil war it was 1 death in 18 or 19 men, and in 1863 it ran as high as 1 death in every 16 men. This great difference between the death rates of soldiers in time of peace and in time of war explains why the major-general com manding considered it necessary to remind officers of all grades that one of their first duties is to guard and preserve the health of the men under their charge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Health in War There has never been a period in American history when diffusion of knowledge of the laws of nature was a more im mediate and a more imperative duty than at the present time. Hundreds of thousands of young men and young women are ready to offer their services and, if need be, their lives for their country and for the great principles of loyalty, truth, justice, humanity and liberty for which our President has enlisted us in this world war. But let not a single life be lost needlessly. Let no constitution be broken by disease through ignorance. The patriotic Opportunity of all men of science is to spread the truth, and to spread it as quickly as possible. Let us speak plainly of all the dangers and enemies which surround the soldier and the sailor, of those that kill the soul as well as those which destroy the body. The loss to the world of the finest strains of manhood is the most awful curse of the many curses attending this war. Every young man, if single, must think of his future wife, of his future home, of his future children and so live that, if his life is spared, he may some day give to his coun try one of the greatest gifts it is in a man's and woman's power to give - healthy and patriotic offspring. It is a scientific, no less than a religious principle, that to serve one's country one must be sound in body, sound in mind, and sound in Spirit.

Hoover. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of Instructions for Enlisting and Discharging Soldiers: With Special Reference to the Medical Examination of Recruits, and the Detection of Disqualifying and Feigned Diseases The successes of Napoleon's military opera tions were due in no small degree to rapidity of combinations and celerity of movements, or, in other words, to the physical efficiency of his troops. Reverses began when the necessi ties of the emperor and the exhaustion of the matured portion of the population required that the conscription be enforced with more rigor and the army recruited from a levy of conscripts under twenty years of age, less care fully selected. The capacity to endure fatigue and long marches is not less a requirement now than it was to the Roman soldier, who marched, carrying a load of sixty pounds, twenty miles and more a daysf Railroad communications may and do powerfully assist in military movements; but their aid is local and of limited application, whilst physical stamina is universally applicable. The ten dency in these days is to decry the necessity for a high standard of physical efficiency in the constitution of an army, and to exaggerate the importance of improved arms.

Download or read book Sanitation in War Classic Reprint written by P. S. Lelean and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sanitation in War To the attainment of that aim there is one essential condition - the intelligent co-operation of the whole personnel of the field force - and it is upon the knowledge of sanitation possessed by medical officers that this essential condition primarily depends. To the R.A.M.C. officer the sanitary methods of field service are necessarily familiar; the civilian practitioner who serves with the army for the first time finds himself at a grave disadvantage when faced by problems in the solution of which the training provided by the civil medical curriculum affords little assistance. In order therefore to lighten the difficulties of those practitioners who have loyally volunteered their services, a series of lectures dealing with subjects of practical value in war have been organized at the R.A.M. College. The appreciation of those gentlemen who have attended these lectures has indicated that the information thus summarized would prove of value to those who have been unable to attend the various courses arranged. The wider the scope and the more precise the knowledge of medical officers on all matters affecting the health of the troops, the greater will be the measure of success attending their efforts to maintain that fighting efficiency upon which depend to so great an extent the prospects of a speedy and successful conclusion of the war.
