Printed staple bound wraps 16 x 25cm. 21pp. Good - tanned, with some rusted staple residue, and a hard horizontal fold crease. The Committee, chaired by Surgeon Vice-Admiral Sir Sheldon Dudley, was appointed in October 1941 at the request of the Medical Department of the Royal Navy, to examine the conditions Naval and RAF personnel may face after loss of ships or aircraft, and make recommendations for them when adrift in boats or rafts, or isolated in the desert. This document therefore includes practical advice on routine preparations and precautions, action in emergency, abandoning ship, procedure in lifeboat, treatment of sick and wounded, lifeboat ailments, steps towards rescue, and treatment after rescue.

Shipping terms
SHIPPING: Domestic and international shipping is tracked and insured with UPS. This has unfortunately meant an increase in domestic rates especially, and in most cases I am absorbing some of the increase. (I have moved away from Royal Mail owing to a series of problems).
DELIVERY DEADLINES: If you have a hard deadline for receipt that is before the processing time stated on Abe, eg, if you need it to arrive urgently before you travel or before a particular event, please contact me at the time of order to advise, so options can be discussed and steps taken to ensure it gets there in time.
RETURNS: Please return any items for refund within 30 days of the estimated delivery date, and contact me first with the reason for the return to establish whether postal costs will be included in the refund. If the item is not as described, I will cover the original and return post.
