Improvements in Medicine & Surgery on the Western Front
1. Study Source A. How does the provenance of Source A impact how helpful the source is for the historian’s enquiry into blood transfusions on the Western Front?
Source A: From an account written after the First World War by Charlie Shepherd. Charlie Shepherd was a soldier who fought in the war. Here he is describing his experiences in a hospital on the Western Front in 1915.
'I was in the hospital. They wanted a volunteer to give blood for a transfusion. I volunteered and they checked that I was the same blood group as the soldier who needed blood. He'd lost a leg. Gangrene had set in and they'd had to amputate it. Oh, he looked like death! As white as a sheet! I've still got the scar where they opened me up to get the tube into my vein. The blood followed up the tube to a bottle and from there it went into the soldier's arm. I was watching him. Believe me, you could see the colour coming back into his face.' |
