Thank you for not adding dumbsteb into serious subjects
my great grandfather was a WW1 doctor. He was stationed in France and also stayed to cure the Flu outbreak. His name is Alfred Thompson and he came back home alive.
What a lovely doctor and narrative she was so respectful of the horrors that those in the medical teams must have faced lovely video 😀
My great grandfather fought in World War One. His name was Robert Hill. He was attached to a Highlander Regiment so he was Scottish. He survived the war of course but he never told anyone what he experienced at the front. My family will never knew what happened to him in the war. But whatever it was it was definitely unpleasant.
Stephen Murphy This may be ahead of ww1 but my great great grandpa was in the Australian naval fleet during ww2
Mike Pence, Same! I can't remember if it was my great great grandfather, or my great great great grandfather who fought in WW1 as an Engineer.
I have a papa-tim who actually had a uncle in WW1, a great uncle. He is sadly dead and has for a looong long time, but he did have bad lungs due to a German gas attack. The uncle rarley went outside.
My Great grandfather also never spoke about it. He was wounded and recovered, sent back to the front and was wounded again, this time severely and my grandma says he was probably hit by a shell as he lost both his legs and his back was ripped to shreds. He returned back to his village and got married and had 7 kids.
Stephen Murphy my great great uncle was in the highlander regiment too, he passed away 2 months before the war ended though
Very respectful and interesting lady.
she is so proud of being a doctor, as she should be. Thank you... to anyone that dedicates their time to study and education to be a doctor!
As an Engineering ug student, I respect that!!!
loved it ,very well done and informative. Back in 1974 in basic training they told us about maggots' and wounds.
her voice is very relaxing.
No Morphine in the kit bag? Ouch... I can't say I've been shot or hit by shrapnel but I've been injured on duty once. I'm a paramedic and I broke my leg in an accident on duty. Most intense pain I've felt so far. My colleague administered me some i.v. Morphine some minutes after and it felt so heavenly. Not just because of the substance, which causes euphoria in the brain, but simply being relieved of this massive pain. I feel for the soldiers of all wars of every nation. The time from getting wounded until you are treated and relieved of the pain...
Also respect to the doctor in the vid. She seems like a good person and a professional. Very good video!
Greetings from Germany
I imagine they removed it from the kit post war. Controlled drug and all.
If memory serves morphine that u or a buddy could administer in an emergency didn't appear until after WW1. So u had to grit ur teeth and bare it until a doctor or nurse could ease ur pain.
I had a heart attack a few years ago and 2 shots of diamorphine (heroin) didn't touch my chest pain how men stand pain at that level and higher for long is amazing to me,
WW1 veterans mustard gas ⛽
If I got to touch WW1 medical stuff, I would be absolutely overjoyed and would be jumping around like a puppy.
My Grandpa George Whittam was a stretcher bearer and the B flat cornet for the Lancashire Fusiliers. He was in the landings at Gallipoli. At Ypres he was gassed. I was a member of the Royal Australian Engineers and now I'm a nurse.
+Phil Schneider How old are you? If you dont mind me asking
No I don't mind. 48.....We're not related are we?
No, don't believe so. Your grandfather must have been very young. When you have kids later in life, around 30, you can go way back by just two generations. My great grandparents were born from 1895-1900
Yeah. My parents we're older than all of my peers too. Mum's brother was para in the WWII (The rematch) and my paternal grandpa was on the other team.
My wife and I are the same age but her great grandfather was at Gallipoli with the Australian Army. He was posted missing and never found. Must have been a ballsy bloke we have his DSC and Great War medal with an Mentioned in dispatches laurel hanging on the wall.
Was your granddad in the Wehrmacht? Ive heard of that place. The straits of Turkey. Hard to believe ll this happened with all of Britain's territories. The world seemed lik a bigger place then. My maternal grandmothers brother landed at Omaha.
My great uncle Stephen Robinson I'm named after him fought for the Harlem hellfighters he was a field medic he survived the war I didn't learn anything from him because he died a few days before I was born
You mentioned silk sutures.They didn't know back then you don't use silk with infections.This must have been horrible before antibiotics-A retired RN,BSN & ex medical corpman 1970-1973
The deaths from sepsis blood poisoning must have staggering ,because of no antibiotics.Several years ago I had an I.V. Filter removed from my artery after surgery and I contracted Sepsis and nearly died and I was in a good hospital ,I can't begin to imagine the conditions those poor souls suffered under when even the slightest wound was a potential death sentence.
I am an ex Anesthetic technician from New Zealand. I used to live in the UK where I attended Magdalen College School Oxford. An auspicious pupil from MCS was a Captain Hoel Chavasse who was awarded two Victoria Crosses, (One Posthumously).in WW1.
I now live in New Zealand, where another Double VC winner lived. Charles Upham VC and bar.
It is very dangerous t have a lantern in no man's land, as the enemies you'd easily see your location and attack. I heard enemies used flares to light up no man's land on the other side, to find enemies out of the trenches
Really enjoyed this presentation.
how clever to put the silk in glass tubes!
The BBC can't help itself
Fascinating
Nice to what you are doing now Class of CC961
Very interesting and educational. Well done
The reality is that some of the most important advances in medicine were made as a direct result of experiences during war. We've learned a lot recently due to the Iraq and Afghanistan wars and some of the techniques that saved soldiers overseas are now used at home when doctors have to treat battlefield type injuries inflicted by machinery on farms or vehicle accidents. I am not saying war was a good thing and I know a lot of men died and suffered. I was born in 1987 and my generation was lucky to get a chance to grow up in a Europe at peace. We should remember the past and honor those who suffered and make sure we never repeat it again. Our European cousins also feel the same way I am sure..
The second she said "under fire" a electric bow exploded into a white mushroom cloud above our car!
... Wow!
Makes you think.
My Great Grand father served in WW1 US Army , was wounded a Ypres, shot in the chest causing the loss of his left lung. I can only imagine the wounded laying on open ground while doctors operated on hundreds of men in minutes trying to save the critically wounded as fast as possible.
Intrestingly, dressing put up sterile for WW1 were still sterile nearly a hundred years later, as long as the packaging was as intact.
The other thing that was not mention was at the time was shell shock or P.T..S.D as is known today
The Xray image and 'schrapnel' is interesting. Should the object caught in the image be actually called 'Grapeshot' since it still retains its manufactured spherical shape, while schrapnel is created by the exploding and fragmenting shell?
bfmcarparts Last- Technically it’s still shrapnel if it was expelled from an explosion. Grapeshot was basically a shotgun shell for a cannon/artillery like today’s beehive round. Most artillery in WW1 was behind the lines to far too use it.
ya forgot the morfin shots
No antibiotics at this time they didn't come in until WW2 so a minor infection meant possible death.
Also self injectable morphine as in WW2 wasn't around then so if u were hit u couldn't just jab urself to ease the pain.
no way the lantern is for picking up casualties, that makes no sense. if it is night you must be silent and unseen? and the lantern would just blow your cower in no man's land(unless if it is in a trench).
Medical personnel (marked out by red cross) aren't allowed to be attacked according to the Geneva Conventions. There were also sporadic informal truces for picking up the wounded at times.
That is very true but the Geneva Convention was ratified a long time later after world war one.
+TheSaturdayTechChannel WithMusicAndGaming The first two conventions (If I recall correctly) were in place by late 1800s. The red cross on the uniforms signify protection under the Geneva conventions. I think you may have confused it with the Hague conventions.
So medics where allowed to enter no man's land to grab casualties or wounded? And still be granted to live?
Plus, iv'e heard that German machine guns where angled low, so when they heard someone trying to fix/remove barbwire, they would shoot from left to right. This was to hit an enemy(s) in the leg/knee.
In that case the medics would scream that they where medics and flash with the lantern in hope to not get shoot?
I don't know how they could walk around no mans land in the dark rescuing their chums . They must have had some pair . A rare breed indeed !
...whenever I play medic I get shot at...and am not even armed
She looks like my french teacher
Where’s dan snow
hey im doing this for school, does anyone know what thing hasn't changed much since ww1
I mean X-rays still X-ray right
how the earth orbits the sun
It wasn't just the Germans they were fighting
Why didn't his kit include morphine?
So interesting, love it.
Interesting to think that what once was high tech and cutting edge is now archaic. What's high tech and cutting edge to us now will be archaic in 100 years.
We still have stretcher carts to take patients across country on some ambulances today.
Am I the only person who thinks she beautiful
I got duckskin. Thats really hard stuff.
I´m glad not to life in the time of this horrible wars.
Quack
watching her manhandle these artifacts was painful
especially the throwing around of the tourniquet
what are you talking about?? it was approved for her to handle the items in the way she was handling them in and she had gloves on lol
How does this have so few views?
This is like ww1 medic asmr
2:23
I wonder if we would go to India and listen to a white person talk about her Sikh ancestors. Probably not because that would be offensive....
How is she representing the British doctors in WW1
CANCEL HIM!!! 😡
My dad was in the ww1
(I'm 98)
This should have been filmed by a soldier.
She was an army officer...
I'm here for corona work ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
People would never fire at medics
Clorox Bleach people would their cannons in the general direction of the enemy,sending shrapnel flying.
Casualties could have been drastically reduced by the generals giving more realistic appraisals to their battle plans in terms of senseless attacks like the Somme Offensive and the killing fields of Ypres, which amounted to murder. Even better, no one in Britain should have cheered when Britain had declared war on Germany in 1914. Going to war with Germany meant facing one of the best technologically equipped armies of the world, and having to face machine guns, barbed wire and endless quantities of high explosive thrown in your direction. A moment's thought might suggest millions of twisted bodies dead and dying in some foreign field far away from home. Who would then help those left behind? The government? No, I don't think so. You would just have to struggle on, only you'd be on your own. May God have mercy on your souls.
very unhealthy doctor...
She's very wrong as She wouldn't of worn that at all, she would have for a nurses "female" outfit not soldiers uniform
Antelao
True
Predecessors lol she not English
Learn about the British Indian army in WW1 and WW2...
your 'predecessors' were actually getting shot at and dominated by British Imperialists, no matter how naturalized you may be at the UK now. haha
even though i do not agree with dominant i do agree she had nothing to do with British nurses therefore should not be talking about her predecessors
Communist media communist scum
come on man... this was beautiful, informative and moving
Not only does she know and practice medicine but performed beautifully as she hosted this scene of wwI uncut
get real, man
get over yourself
Please learn the difference between predecessors and ancestors.
Learn about the British Indian army in WW1 and WW2....
