GENERAL
On the modern battlefield, you may have several casualties at the same location who need medical attention. One of your first decisions will be deciding which casualty to treat first. One soldier may have a life- threatening injury requiring prompt treatment if he is to survive. Another may have a minor injury that can be treated by the casualty himself or which can go without treatment for several hours before his condition deteriorates significantly. Another may have injuries so severe you probably would not be able to save his life even if you devoted all of your time and medical resources to his care. You must determine the sequence in which casualties are to be treated in order to do the most good for the most people. You must use a logical method that will maximize the number of survivors and will return to duty those soldiers who are still able to perform combat duties. Triage provides such a system.
