WAT&~PROOFII?G OF WU.PGiJS FOR DEEP WATER FORDING

SECTION I

SMALL ARMS

1. General :

The following instructions are designed to protect small


arms against complete Immersion duri,w deep water fording
operations or surf landings, and still permit immediate use of .
the material after landing. They will serve a8 a general guide
for supplementing supervision of actual waterproofing by train-
ed personnsl.

2. MaterIalA:

a. The materials for the preparation of small arm8 for deep


water fording are listed below.

Cover, waterproof, small arm8 (film type) (Specification


i?o. P.Q.D, No. 377):
Type 1. Cover, waterproof, pistol.
Type 2. Cbver, waterproof, rifle,
Tne 3. Cover, waterproof, submachine gun.
Type 4. Cover, waterproof, machine gun.

Tape, adhesive, non-hygroscopic, 2-inch (same type ae used


on tanks for overseas shipment).

Oil, lubricating, preservative. medium (landing operations).

Grease, asbestoe.

Grease, water pump, U, S. Army 2-109, may be used as a sub-


stitute for grease, asbestos.

3* Waterprooffna Instructions:

a. Before operations are started, the weapon should be properly


lubricated, placed in the waterproof cover, and securely tied.

b. The muzzle of each mortar should b8 sealed with non-hygro-


scogic adhesive tape, and further protected by an application of
asbestos grease along the seams of the tape. Gears and working
parts of elevating and traversing mechanisms should be lubricat-
ed with medium preservatlvd lubricating oil (landing onerations).
Exposed surfaces of ring joints, sleeve joints, and other possible
points of entry of water should be protected by applying asbestos.
grease. Work the grease well up against all points of the. surf&C88
being covered uo e.8 to fill in all cracks, seams, holes and cre-
vices. Be sure that it is smoothed down well and adheres at the
edges.

Chapter -4. Page -23- - --


1G ,,\;i’,~J,“;y~\ F-j

C. Machine gun mounts should be handled in the same manner


as mortar mounts--the objective being to prevent the entry of
water by using the asbestos grease.

d. For any other type of small arms matsrlal not covered by


these specific Instructions, medium preservative lubricating ail
(lending operations) should be used.

e. As soon as possible after landing operations are completed,


the waterproofing material should be removed. Parts subjected to
salt water should be washed with fresh water, throughly dried,
cleaned, end properly lubricated as described in the pertinent
t e chni cal manual s .

will 6erve as a general guide for supplementing sunerviefon of act-
ual waterproofing by *trained persorfiel. Only the significant points
are covered in the detailed instructions. Neceesity for extreme
care in all steps cannot be overemphasized. Every seam, joint, or
opening must be com_nletely sealed. When waterproofing is completed,
the materiel should be careftdly inspected to make sure all openings
and parts have been properly treated.

a. Service Prior To WaterwroofiW,:

(1) Clean gun (or howitzer} and carriage thorotqhly.

(2) Icubricete all noints ordinarily lubricated deilx, weekly,


Rnd monthly in accordance with pertinent War Department Lub-
ricetion Guide. Lubricate points ordinarily lubricated every
6 months if they have not been done recently.

(3) qply medium preservative lubricating oil to the bore of


the tube and breech mechanism. In the case of the 4O-mm gun,
apply the oil to the casing and automatic load assemblies.

(4) Tighten bolts and nuts in all covers or openings such as


oil gears transmission cases , electrical fixture boxes, etc.

Remove all oil end grease from Faints to which waterproof -


compound or materials are to be anplied.

(6) Put materiel in traveling position.

1. wei ht* The eargo sled WGIBdesigned.to hmdle a &.niznum load


of 3,ooo --i&G.
po Eiowever, it wad found that the sled oould be handled
better with a lighter load md 2,000 pounds was adopted as.the most de-
sirable weight. In loading sled8 , with more than one type of material
making up the load, it ie important that the weight distributicrrr be aa
eymmtrioal M poeaible to faoilitate handling.
2. Heights of load. Frownthe Transport Quartsmastar~s point of
v&m, all the sleds should ham the S(UBBheight 80 that the oargo in
the ahipr holds obn be floored over when neuesaarye Beoause of the tam
rioty of Praterialr pall&Axed, this was not porsible without wing l-go
amounts of dunnage and mating ahipping spaoe. Hcmver, ft WESrpeoi-
fied that the loaded rled should mt sxaeed 40 inohea Prum the bottom
of the runner to the top of tha load. Phi6 perPitted the load itrelf
to be 52 inoher in height. It ma desirable to lirait the height of the
loaded rlsd rlso from a stability rtandpoint, A lower center of gravity
dserasrss ehe tendenoy of the rled to tip over while it is being lifted
or tomd.
In mme easea it was requested that oaPtain mm-
and equipmmt be aeoured on a single aled. This
involved the amanging of the variouo aired boxes and artiales 80 that
a stable, smoke load was obtained. This ma amomplirhed by uring the
tieid aaterirlr to be loaded an a particular sled to m&e up the four
ooraerr pad using any aoft or non-rigid matsria&s in the aenterc The
load ehould ti solid, square , and level 6a top 80 that the sleds oan
be rtaoked and, whenever neoemm=y, dunaage should be used to aaoomp-
lirh thir.

satisfactory for this purpose. Loaded Army litters can be &owed in the clata8

C. Develonment of chore-to-shin evacuating:

Be a rule, during the initial atagee of a landing sttack,~comparatlvely


few casualties can be removed from beaches, Although the landing of combat
troops and materiel murt have first consideration, it is highly desirable to
have ambulance boata provided for the evacuation of the aeriouslg wotmded di-
roct to hospital shipe. In any event it 18 the roaponeibillty of the Naval
form rurgeon to orgqito and develops him svacuatlon service atetp by rtsg 91
rapidly as the eituation permite; and the detailed plan should provide for the
rapid organization of syBtomatic evacuation from &ore to rhip.

22. Debsrkatioq:

The debarlrat ion of Army medical unite equipment ie carried out in ac-
cordance with &W debarkation tables.

23. Pharea of Landi= tierations:

a, The dispaeitione and employment of the Army and Navy medical mr-
vices conform to the three general phaees of the landing operation8 in which,
during the first these, landing@ of combat teams on the aseignod beacher are
made and as rapidly BB possible the attack on each beach is pushed with suoh
reinforcements as are necorrary OT available until the beaches are recured
from enemy light artillery fire. Thie requires as the objective for this
phase the eatabliahment of a line about 10,000 yarde inland. The second
qhaee consists of those further operations inland which secure the beaches
from enemy medium artillery fire. This requires ae the objective for thi#
phaee the establishment of a line at least 15,000 yards inland. The third
@aee Includes the further land and air operations necersary to 8ecure the
objectives for which the landing wa8 undertaken.
b. Simultaneous landings are made by aa many combat team8 on am
broad a front as the boat facilities will permit without undue di spersion.
24. Arms Medical Service Durinp First Phase:

a. Medical detachments:

The medical detachmente of combat units debark with the organization to


which attached. In a combat battalion, two first-aid men wearing Red Croea bras-
sards and carrying a~ much dressing material as they can, board the landing boats
with each company.

Iti8 their duty to land with and follow their companies closely, and to
render euch aeeistance to the woundsd a@ may be possible. The remainder of the
battalion medical detachment will normally go ashore in the later 4ubwave which
land% the battalion headquarters, the battalion surgeon accompanflng the batta-
lion commander. Ordinarily, only ruch medical equipment and supplies a6 may be
hhnd carried can be landed at thla time. The men should,howtver, carry a6 many
dressing%, blankets, littera, and 88 much splinting material 88 practicable.
The detachments’ traneport and heaviest equipment follow later. The battalion
medical detachment of an infantry aesault battalion establishes an aid Ptation
at or near the beach at the best available cite, where the battalion casualtiee
are collected and treated as in land attacks. As the battalion sdvanceti inland,
the medical raction follovs it and eetablishes successive aid statioas.according
to the situation. The procedure followed by the medical section of an infantry
reserve battalion ia basically the same ae tbet for the medical troops attached
to an assault battalion in the laqding, ao is also that of the medicsf eectioh6
of field artillery and combat engineer battalione.
b. Regimental 8ectiollJt:

Eteglmental eectione of regimental medical detachments will normally land


with their ovn regimental headquarters and thrrerrfter perform their duties in
accordance with the normal practice In offsnolve operationr. In 6OJnOeituat-
ions It may be nrceaaary for the regimsntal section to t&e over temporarily
a battalion aid station at the beaoh filled with wounded whom the battalion
rrctioa ha8 had to leave behind in order to follow f’ta battalion.

They muat be rrgregated and the walking wounded rigidly controlled: eepecial-
ly mart the latter be prevented from interfering with the activities of the
braah party. Therefore, caeualtier ready for evacuation from the beach will
oe a,rWnbled at a location derignated by the shore party commander, which
rhould be located with due regard to ruitablt boat landings, cover from the
rnsmy fire, looatlon of the aid or colleating ettationa, and natural drift.of
the wounded. One or more such locationr may ba derignated for each beach.

(3) Medical personnel to assist the evacuation officer should come
from a corps medical regiment or other medIca unit of low debarking prior-
ity. This personnel must be adequate for the many duties of the evacuation
eection of the shore party, which include the movement of a11 litter cases
collected at the beach to a point on the shore from which they will be load-
ed into boate by the naval medical embarkation officer’s personnel. In em-
ergenc y , the evacuation officer may have to furnish litter bearers ternpor-
arily to assist in loading boats. The initial evacuation section of the
shore party landing in the leading combat team may of necessity be only a
skeletonfzed group. In such caaee its early reinforcement will be provided
for.
(4) It is highly important that the sorting, claseificatfon, and group-
ing of patients by the Army evacuation officer is done carefully and syetem-
atically. This assists the naval medical embarkation officer materially,
permita greater economy In the u8e of boats and decreases later the secondary
tranafere from ship to ship.

is8 move out to make contact with regimental and battalion aid stations and
l vaouate carrlltier from them to the beach. Other uollecting companies per-
ronnel establish an initial collecting station near the beach. Ae the beach
head lm enlarged, collecting companies advance their collecting station in-
land, maintaining contact with the medical dstachBmntB in their z;one of act-
ion. The tranaport and haavy equipment of collecting companies can be land-
ed only after boat8 and simple docking facilitier have become available for
(2) Ambulaqce 0-t The personnel of ambulance companies normal-
ly follow soon after the aollectl~ compsaies. If casualtier are heavy and
the attainment of the ffrat objective slow, the personnel of those companies
rhould be used a8 litter bearer6 to oasirt in avecuating caeualties to the
medical rtationr an or near the beacher. In come situation8 it may be im-
poe~ibls to land the arbtikancus until the end of tho flret phase.

portrtion to rhore ie rvaileible, advantage should be taken of such favor-
able circtlmatancer to proaidd there fficilitier on shore for the care of
ornultier. Patients in horpital station6 will be claaeifled and held M-
til called for by the Amy evacuation officer. In opening the Initial hor-
pita1 at&ion after landing, the hoapltal company may take over the patient6
and the rite of a collecting station near the beach, the collecting company
opening a new otation further Inland. When companier of two or more bat-
talionr of a ldedfcal regiment are operating on a beach, a commanding offfc-
or will be deaignatsd and a command poet established for the control of euch
elammtr.

(5) By the end of the first phase, part of the medical regiment of
the division9 should be ashore, operating collecting stations, an ambulance
service, and perhaps a hospital station near the beach. A medical supply
noint and dump will be in operation near the beach for the supply of mdical
units ashore.

Note: Medical organization of .a Marine Corps brigade consists of four medical


zompeniea) each composed of a headquarters section, collection sectfo2, hospital
section, and service section. These medical companies land and operate in accord-
ance with the brigade medical plan.

25. flayv Medical Service During First Phase.

a. lavv Force Surgeon:

With the launching of the initial landing attack, the Navy force surgeon’s
office becomes the nerve center of the combined activities of the two medical eer-
vices. The Army force surgeon must maintain close contact with the Navv force sur-
geon. This is easily done if both are embarked in the sane ship. It i’s necessczy
that the Navy force surgeon receive prompt and frequent reports of the casualty
situation on each landing beach. This will be done normally through signal com-
munication from beach parties, A board in his office should show the bed capacity
of each hospital ship in the landing area a6 well as that of troop shins previous-
ly prepared and staffed to receive slightly wounded from shore. On anf;ther board
the evacuation officer or his staff keeps the current bed occuoancy status of each
receiving ship. This measure is of prime importance, since bv-means of it the act-
ual bed situation throughout the fleet is known with approxi&te accuracy at all
times, and boats returning from shore with patients are routed accordingly. Report
of Casualties and bed status are rendered to the Army and Navy staffs periodicelly;
hourly, if called for.

b. Beach medical Rervice:

(1) The naval evacuation service on a beach forms a section in the


beach master’s organization. The skeleton of this section, at least, should
accompany the beach master in the first boat group and be reinforced to full
requirements at the earliest opportunity thereafter. The task of the naval
medical evacuation officer is to organize and operate the service of evacuat-
ion from the beach, Bis activities include:

(a) Eatabllshment and marking with the Red Cross flag and other necess-
ary identifying signs, an evacuation station at a site approved by the beach
master.
(b) Establishi ng and malntaininp: close contact with the Army evacuat-
ion officer of the shore party.
(c) Reception of casualties from the Army evacuation officer and load-
ing them into boats according to their classification for movement to design-
ated receiving ships.
(d) Keeping the Navy force surgeon informed of the casualty situation
on his beach through naval signal communication on the beach and by meesages
transmitted by naval personnel in boats carrying casualties from shore to ship
(e> Forwarding to the Army evacuation officer messages and supplies re’
ceived by him for the Army medical service ashore.

Chapter -f- Page -6- ---w-m


(2) If casualtie are collecting in large ,numbers on the beach in
the early stagee of the attack, naval medical embarkation officer8 muat be
alert to take advantage of any opportunitlee to send as many of them aB prac-
ticable to shipa by returning boats. This ia generally desirable although
there may have to be a ship-to-ship transfer of these c&Bee later.

c. Evacuation at end of first phaes: *

By the end of the first phaee, evacuation from shore ehould have
progre6Bed to the use of a coneiderable number of improvised ambulance boatr
(previously ueti in landing combat elements) now provided with medical per-
sonnel and equipment from hospital ehips or transport8 for the emergency
treatment of casualties en route; perhaps a few regular ambulance’bo&to en-
titled to fly the 3ed Cross flag; an organized ambulance boat service to moat
of the beaches; and the delivering of all caeualties from beach euacuat ion
stations to design8ted ships.

26. Army Medical Service During Second Phase.

During thiB phase, any remaining elements of the divisional medical regfments
: medical battalion, triangular division}, including traneport , are landed and
ce positions and miRsione similar to those assigned them in offensive land oper-
Lonp.
a. Gorge medical regiment:

By the end of this phase,the corps medical regiment may be expected to


have landed and relieved the divisional medical regiments of their funCtionU
at the beaches, allowing these elements to move forward in support of the act-
ion of the division.

b. Gdical sunrly:

The medical supply service for the troops ashore is further developed
in this phase; toe medic81 supply point at the beaches in more systematically
organized, supplies in the medic81 dump built up, and depleted stocks of the
medical unit 6 inland replenished.

27. Baval Medical Service During the Second Phsse:

By the end of this phase, the naval medical 6ervice should have succeeded in
,veloping and systematizing the evacuation from 6hore and at the receiving end;
zat is, in the fleet itself. This it is enabled to do through:

(a) Increased number of landing - boats available for the use of the
medical services.
(3) Inaugurat i on of a regular ambulance boat eervi ce to the more im-
portant
&
beaches
(c) Docking facilities, though limited, at important beachee.
(d) Use of a small number of bargee and lighters now made ovellable
to the medical cervices, whereby wounded c8n be removed from a beach more ex-
peditiously, comfortably, and in much greater number6.
(e) Fewer tranefers of patients from ship to ship. If casualties are
heavy, evacuation from Rhore in the early stages of the landing ia more or le8R
8n emergency measure and patient6 8re brought in m8ny Instances to whatever
ship may be mo6t practicable for the boat carrying them. Ae communicathn from
the beachea become6 well establiehed, and hence the number6 and ClaaBification
of caeualtiee on each beach reach the Navy force surgeon with Borne regularity,
delivery of caeualties can be made to ehipa according to patients’ classificat-
ion and ships’ vacant beds. This favorable development proceeds in- like pro-
portion with the increasing facilities noted in & to a above.

28. Jhmv Medical Service During Third Phase:

a. Sur,&al hospitals generally may be landed and established early


in this phase. Their use to the extent of their limited bed capacity i6 of
distinct advantage to the most seriously wounded.

b. Evacuation hospitals, comparatively large units, should not be


landed and established until a sufficient advance Inland ha8 been made to
afford them suitable choice location and resonabls assurance that they will
not become involved in local reverses to our forces.

c. General and station hospltalg in which definitive treatment is


carried out cannot be opened until a Becure oversea base has been establish-
ed. If general hospitals then must be built, at least 4 months will prabab-
ly be required for their erection and equipment. It may be possible to con-
vert existing buildings to general hospital use in much less time. The over-
sea eqeditionary plan may or mcay not contemplate the establishment of gsn-
era1 hoepitala in the occupied territory.

d. Army medical laboratories (mobile) will be landed aa early in the


third phaee as their use becomes practicable and necessary.

8. Army medical deDot8 will be established ashore at such time and


points ~8 conform to the supply plan of the expeditionary forces after a base
has been secured.

2’3. Naw Medical Service During Third Phase:

a. In thfe phase the naval medical service may be expected to have at


Its disposition sufficient boater of euitable types to enable*it to perfect
shore to ship evacuation. Evacuation from some beaches wfll probabiy have
ceased and the other beaches have been provided with adequate wharf and dock-
ing facilities. Hospital ships may be relocated at anchorage to shorten the
average trip from beach to ship.

b. In this phase, in which the Navy is best equipped and organized to


carry out its part of the evacuation service, the tummy is gradually adding to
its facllitiee for caring for its own casualties ashore. This augmentation
cJntinuce until, if the Army is successful in its mission and general hospit-
allration In the occupied territory is contemplated, the Army will eventually
nospitalize its casualties in ite own establishments. If the Navy Is then
to continue evacuation for the Army to home ports or other bases it will
still evacuate that part of the Army’s sick and wounded which ha;e ceased to
be military aseets or whose recovery wil 2 be a matter of many months.

.,70, Medical SUDS~Y to Land fmz Beaches:

a. In land operations it is difficult to maintain an adequate surply


of blanket@, litters, and swlintlng material at advanced medical stationa dur-
ing combat in spite the specific
of provisions made for an exchange of these
items for every caeualty carried to the rear. It in more dffficult in Joint
lknding operatf on. Both Army and Z?avy are involved in this supply to the land-
ed medical units. All medical supplies are on board ship when the attack Is
launched. Medical personnel landing early can take wlth them only very small
auantities of these ftem$. In the early stage8 of landing, blankets, litters,
and eplinting materials cannot be exchanged with any degree of certainty, ar
troop landing boats , ff eometimee used to remove wounded from the shore, may
deliver their patients ta ships not carrying medfcal supplier. Furthermore,
the boats may not return directly to the beaches but go to another chip to take
a boat load of troops ashore.

b, (1) Therefore, the supply of blankets, litters, and splinti:;
and dressing materials on beaches by exchange cannot be relied upon.
is necessary that the joint medical plan make det&il8d PrOvision for this
“upply during the landing operations, to includ8:

(a) That medic& detachments landing take with them as many of


these items as they can man-handle.
(b) That a medical dump b8 established promptly on each beach
under Che direction of the evacuation Officer (ShOr8 party), with
the necessary persome~ to oper&te it.
(c) That boats in the early stages of the attack, landing sup-
plies include some of these essential items of medical equipment.
(d) That as soon a6 ambulance boate are put into service, they
build up, on their runs.from ship to shore, as rapidly as poealble
and maintain ample reserves of blankets, litters, and splinting
and dressing materials on each beach.
le) That th8 naval medical embarkation officer (beach party)
take all necessary action to facilitate this supply.
(f) That at the beach, exchsnge with litt8r bearers and ambu-
lances bringing in casualtfef: from inland be rigidly enforced.

(2) The measures given in (1) above apply eepecially to the cri t-
ical first and second phases. Thereafter an organized znd more extensive
system of medical sup-ply to the landed forces should be in operation.

c. (I) The Wevy ?t x-et c h er is desfpned fr,r us8 on board ship. For
the movement of large numbers of casualties from shere to ship it is unsat-
isfactory. Its employment for this purpose would furtner reqjlire the trans-
fer of wounded from the Army litter to the Navy stretcher on the beach.

(2) In joint oversea expedi tione it is ?esi.rP.h:e fl>r the %VY to


make the necessary adantations (litter hofats, litter ?lidew&yo, bu.nI( straPs.
etc.) for the use of the Army litter in trensfcrring MTT,;Y casue.ltics frOffi
shore to ship.

8,. Ideally, the sorting end clas?ificatinn of sick and wounded is
best carried out on chrrre, thus T!ermitting beets cerryir,,:. cPeualtie)S to
ships to be sgTctt?mat jcallg Bnd most economically emcloyed, and at the same
time redlrcing to the minimum the tirre taken and tne discomforts tu patients
in the subzequcnt secznd~ry evacll8tion frond ship to ship. Practically, in
confused end crowded condition of the beeches often occu.rring, the heavy in-
flow of wol~rtded., the early scarcity and irrepxlsrjty of casualty carrying
boats, and the uncertainty of the particular ship to which any loa.ded boat
will deliver its patients, shore sorting, as experience has shown, NW be
far from satisfactory.

b. An alternative procedure is to anchor a hospital ship off each


beach, designate it es a sorting station, and at the seme time fill it to
capaai ty with casualties requiring early operation and others which are to
be evacuated to a home port, tr&ngferring th8 rest to other ships. ‘&hen
this sorting ship Is filled wit,, r, th8 proper ~a888 it leaves and is replaced
at anchorage by another hoq?tal ship. If occupied beeches are close toget-
her one sorting ship may serve more than one hesch. This method was used
extensively by the British at Galllpoli in 1315.

ILLUXRnTIVx Y2,STIUTE OF EOSPXTAL SHIP BBDS FOR A HYPOTHETICAL


JOIXT OmRa&& EXPEDITION

1. General :

The following estimates and corngutetfsn of hospitalization afloat to accom-


pany a hypothetical joint Amy and Navy oversea expedition are meant to 6erve
only as an illustration of how the problem may be anprosched in the preparation
of the medical plan. It represents a situation requiring a large number of beds
in class A, claes 3, and class D hospital ships, but not as high a percentage of
such beds a6 might be necessary in another situation.

Note: For the put-pose of thie manual, class A hospital ships are those ful-
ly equipped hospital ships in commissioh in the Navy; class B hospital ship6 are
those Xavy hospital ships carried in the Navy Register, but not in commission in
peacetime; class D hospital ships are those procured and converted and equipped
a6 floating hospitals from commercial shipping and commissioned as hospital ships
In the Navy.

The fewer the claes A and clarff B hospital ships available for use in a joint
Army and Navy overeea expedition the earlier should estimates be made for the num-
ber of bedR required afloat in the area of operation. This is neceaeary because
class D hospital ships must be procured, converted, equipped, and manned prior to
the expedition’s departure from the port of embarkation.

It should be noted that the division of eick and wounded according to their
seriousness, between class A and B ships, and class D ships, 88 made in this il-
luetrative situation, will not be an arbitrary one in practice, provided the
claes D ship8 have been converted into modern and fully equipped hospital ships.

2. Princioal Data 0~1 Which Estimates Were Based:

the operations area to make the turn around and begin loading patient8 again
in the ianding area, the emedltionary fleet must be followed from the port
of embarkation at close intervals by additional hospital shipe, The mini-
mum number for this purpose for the army forces (and Navy sick) are com-
puted 3s follows:

b. To the 6,800 hospital ship beds must be added s:xh beds as are
deterrclned upon in the plan for the reception of the probtible or the pos-
sible navctl sounded.

0. (1) In thie exarr:ple, no fkctor of safety has been pmvided for


the numerous pmalbilltles t)f unforsaen ckrinces in conditions or In the oft-
uatlon , which might increase the hospital ohtp bed requirementa. No allow-
ar.cs ha6 been made for prisoner-qf-war casualtfes. It is only rarely pan-
sLble to utilize at one time 100 percent of hospital bed capacity.

(2) Ordinary prudence dictates that in the situation here aBm.med,


a reserve of st least 10 Tercent of hospital ship beds be added. This re-
serve may initially be held, ready for sailing, at the port of embarkation.

(7) That the number of hospital beds provided for the situation
indicated for the first 28 days after sailing from the port of embarkation is
conservativ%, is apparent from the fact that 1,916 of the sick md 2,632 of
the wounded, a total of 4,548, are held in landing area. A considerable per-
centage of the sick will have returned to duty by the end of this period, but
of the wounded a majority will still be on a sick status, probably ir. part on
land and In part on ship board. These sick and wounded may exceed the Ntlvy’s
hospital. resources even after all transports which can possibly be spared for
the purpose have been hastily and indequately fitted out for their hosoftallz-
. ation.

(4) A8 to the use of transports for the return to the home port or
other base of those sick and wounded who in this hypothetical 8itUatiOn
have been moved in hospital ships, it i8 to be recognieed that both cate-
gories (those in class A and B and those in class D hospitai ships) are Of
such a eerious character a8 to require the medical and surgical care and
the facilities of properly equipped hospital ships. History furnishes ex-
ample8 of deplorable and even scandalous iastancea of the movement8 of gr-
eat number8 of the sick and wounded of such joint expeditions from the oper-
ations area to a distant base in entirely inadequately converted and medic-
ally equipped troop transport8; and consequently attended by wholesale de-
privations and Unnecessary suffering. In the main such conditiona are to be
aecribed to the initial failure to plan for and to provide a8 a part of the
expeditionary ehipplng sufficient hoepitalitation afloat.
