Summary
editDescriptionMustard gas chemical burns on combat soldier of the First World War in France about 1918.jpg |
English: Combat soldier of the First World War who had suffered extensive Mustard gas burns to his back and arms. These burns are severe enough to be life-threatening. Furthermore, given the characteristics of mustard gas (i.e. the way its vapours penetrate clothing) it is likely that this victim suffered additional burns to his hips, buttocks, thighs and groin area. However, given the social conventions of the era, such injuries would not be photographed for inclusion in a book that was published circa 1918. (Public domain (the photo is over 90 years old))
Français : Soldat de la Première Guerre mondiale victime de brûlures chimiques causées par le gaz moutarde ou Ypérite. Toute la peau est touchée, sur la presque totalité du dos et sur les deux bras. Des brûlures de ce type sont assez graves pour menacer le pronostic vital. En outre, étant donné les caractéristiques du gaz moutarde (à savoir la façon dont ses vapeurs traversent les vêtements), il est possible et probable que cette victime ait subi des brûlures supplémentaires aux hanches, fesses, cuisses, aine et organes génitaux, voire dans les poumons. Les conventions sociales de l'époque faisaient que ces blessures n’étaient que très rarement photographiées, ici pour inclusion dans un livre publié vers 1918 |
