4. SOUNDBITE (English): Captain David Steinbruner, Trauma Specialist, Ibn Sina Hospital, Baghdad:
"Remember this is sort of a chain of survival, and it began with a very twitch young medic who'd never seen this kind of trauma before who very appropriately put two tourniquets on her legs and saved her life in the field. She was widow's bay rapidly taken out by a helicopter crew that rapidly recognised how sick she was and got her in here along with the others. It was recognised by a charge nurse who recognised how sick she was and got me over to the bed to intubate her, get access, by several medics who tried to get the access on her and IV lines. All along the way, those people were instrumental in getting her here, so what we needed to do was protect her airway, stop the bleeding, literally just clamp it off at the legs stop the bleeding and then fill her up with blood and then get her to the operating room where the surgeons very quickly realised that they needed to move very quickly upstairs and they were even down at the bedside right here but knew that they had to go upstairs to fix her."

"I knew that the soundman was deceased at the time and I knew that. And the cameraman, we assisted him, he had a, of course, a decapitation on his leg and we did a tourniquet on him and stopped the bleeding and we dragged him to safety so we wouldn't get near the fire and the burning vehicle. And at that time we assisted everybody else, started giving the IV (intravenous) and from that point the medics took over and I just started putting security for them as well."
