You never know when having a few emergency medical manuals could come in handy. So here is a collection that should get you by for just about any situation.
US Army Self Aid / Buddy Aid Training Manual
I think the most appropriate document for the average person is the Army’s Self Aid / Buddy Aid training manual. It deals with common issues such as choking, broken bones, CPR, dressing wounds, and other things a non-medical professional can do. It’s designed to be a training course that you complete, along with tests and everything, to make sure you are prepared in advance of a situation. As with all of the material here, it does you no good if you’ve never even read it…

Emergency War Surgery
This last one isn’t going to be useful to anyone but a doctor. So skip it unless you’ve got the school debt to prove it. However, if you have medical training, this is the entire 36 chapter guide to Emergency War Surgery. The only problem is, you’re going to need a lot of supplies to deal with that kind of trauma. Perhaps you can start with the highly portable Fully Stocked Stomp Medical First Aid Kit Back Pack…
