Description

X-RAYS IN MILITARY SURGERY*
CHARLES F. BEHRENS, M.D.
Commander, MEDICAL CORPS, UNITED STATES NAVY; U. S. NAVAL HOSPITAL, WASHINGTON, D.C.

IN addition to the humanitarian impulse that constitutes a deep activating force in the heart of every true physician and leads him to put forth his best efforts in the behalf of the human wreckage of war, there is another and harsher necessity laid upon him in wartime military service; namely, to keep the maximum number of men in the battle lines. Possibly this fact has been emphasized before, but it will bear repetition for it is properly a fundamental feature of military surgery. Happily, the humanitarian and military responsibilities usually go hand in hand; save when, in the heat of action, it becomes more important to return the slightly injured to battle than to attend to serious cases.
