INTRODUCTION The first book for the instruction and guidance of hospital corpsmen was the small paper-covered volume of 194 pages, easily slipped into the pocket and readily carried in the ditty box or sea bag. This was published in 1914. It contained practical information for the hospital corpsman that he could easily be applied to problems of sanitation, first aid and nursing. Succeeding editions of the Handbook of the Hospital Corps, as this book was called, became larger and larger until finally the Handbook was a bulky volume of 1,130 large pages. This was the Handbook of 1939. It is felt that this Handbook has become too large and unwieldly for easy use under the conditions of naval life, and furthermore the extent of knowledge required and the development of special technical branches make a single volume inadequate. There is, therefore, in the present Handbook a return to the smaller form that contains only basic knowledge on a few fundamental subjects. Detailed knowledge of special technician’s training must be obtained from books dealing exclusively with the special field. The present Handbook is divided into three parts: One section is devoted to “First Aid and Minor Surgery,” another to “Nursing Procedures” and the third “Preventive Medicine.” An appendix contains a list of all United States Pharmacopaeia and National Formulary drugs with English and Latin titles, and the dosage; a poison table; notes on independent duty; and some other useful features. A list of necessary books for reference and supplementary study are included. The size, shape, and binding have been selected as suitable for easy handling and stowing. A flexible cover, resistant to tropical fungi, and attacks by insects and dampness, has been used.
