[Tandorini]

A manual for first aid responders in the First World War, by Th. Robinet, 1914.

This material is kept at KU Leuven Libraries 2Bergen.

In August of 1914 the Belgian army prepared to defend the country from the attacking Germans. At first, the Red Cross is not yet ready to take care of the injured people, but the organisation gathers itself. It was under these circumstances that this manual came into existence. A quick education of medical personnel was a matter of life and death.
