I was the trooper on the ground next to be waited on(green shirt). The laughter should have been curtailed. I was yelling "whiskey" for my pain. Tallassee is an excellent event we attend. Gut wounds are seen as last ditch efforts as "triage" was formed during the CW, doing the most good to the most troops. Gut wounds require more supplies and time that was needed for more patients with lesser injuries. Amputations were a quick fix. Scary huh?
I am doing a project on Civil War medicine, and it said that since doctors don't know much about organs, and anyone with an abdominal wound would die, or if they're will favored, cut the cord. I read that in some states a doctor would be executed if he operated on the abdomen.
Actually, speaking from actual medical expertise, he would have passed out from shock first, then he would have probably suffered internal bleeding throughout. Death would have been present within 24-hours. I only know this because I used to be an embalmer & I also served with the 71st California Infantry as a Surgeon Major.
maybe, possiblity that he would died, and he could lived as well. look how many photos had soldiers been shot with fragments and ect with small arms to cannon shells
Who were the stupid shits that were laughing? I'd like to see them shot in the stomach and have they're guts falling out then they'd see who would be laughing...
@zimpiko28 They could have at least shown some respect for the reenactors. I know it wasn't entirely authentic the way the soldier was released from the table and the way he plopped down on the ground, but still, the point stands.
well lets see as for the comments of audio runined it sorry the comments only show the audience was paying attention and wanted to more information. As a medical reenactor I like your video. Been in the field since 1975. That was good. Thanks
No, the first commentator says we ruined it with our dialoge in the background of the video. It was a young girl who'd walked up who recognized me (holding the camera) and my husband (the one on the table). I wasn't going for high art here, just something fun for my husband to remember his big day!
Someone walked up that recognized us and wasn't taking non-verbal communication as enough recognition. Besides - she's like 12. I'm sure she really appreciates the idiot comment.

In the Civil War you would have died for a stomach wound. That was what everyone thought they couldnt be saved.
