Issued on 28 January 1944, this manual standardized the cleaning, preservation, and field?level repair of surgical sets ranging from bone rongeurs to indirect transfusion rigs. Its concise instructions reduced combat?losses of delicate instruments during the Normandy and Pacific campaigns, while its annex on germicides reflects the contemporary shift toward aseptic, penicillin?augmented surgery. An invaluable artefact for collectors of WWII medical equipment literature. Soldier's name (Best) on cover, otherwise in very fine condition.
