I get all that - I do. The story I read said this guy was shredded - literally ripped to pieces. What are they supposed to do? Maybe you can enlighten me - as I'm assuming from your posts you're ex-military, how would you have handled this situation? Applying gauze, administering morphine and holding his hand til he expires seems more callous to me.
