What was in a first aid kit for a soldier in World War 2?

The first first aid kit wasn't made until 1890 by Johnson and Johnson. It held antiseptic dressings, surgical supplies, wound care, and a first aid guide. This is well past the time of the pioneer time frame, so they didn't have a kit. They may have carried cotton strips to be used as bandages, some ointments, and medicinal plasters. When a person was hurt in the 1800's they very often died of wounds if they were serious and often had body parts cut off to save the life of the hurt person.

What does the word xenophobia have to do with world war 2?

Xenophobia originally meant a fear of foreigners, but has been broadened to mean a fear of any particular group of people. For this reason, antisemitism is typically considered xenophobia and Hitler is often used as an example of xenophobia.

But Xenophobia if found in all cultures and could be found in the mix of the history of every war ever fought. WW2 is just a favorite example of the present culture, but we could look at the British attempts at exterminating the Irish, the Arabic conquest of Persia and Northern Africa, the US and the American Indian, the Israeli-Arabic conflict, North Korea, the struggle in present day Iraq, and the list goes on and on ...

What treatment would World War 2 soldiers receive if they had post traumatic stress disorder?

It is very difficult to treat, but many different therapies are applied. The methods used include:

Eye-Movement Desensitization Retraining (EMDR) - That is a technique involving eye-movement.

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) - That uses some of the EMDR technique and adds, tapping various meridians in the body and saying various intention statements.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - That uses logical examination of the facts leading to the feelings and examines any "twisted" logic. The premise is that beliefs lead to thoughts, thoughts lead to feelings, and feelings lead to behaviors. So changing beliefs and thoughts should influence feelings and behaviors.

Medication - This may not cure the condition, though some sufferers face significant improvements after a short course of beta blockers. That allows the person to fully experience the traumatic experience that they blocked while they were having it. Once they fully experience the traumatic event and deal with it, it goes away. If beta blocker therapy doesn't work, other medications can be given for symptomatic relief. For instance sleeping pills, tranquilizers, mood stabilizers, and anti-depressants can be given.

Idenics, Dianetics - These techniques involve reexamining the events and discussing them. The auditor or facilitator asks specific questions that cause the person to examine their own traumatic events and their own attitudes and beliefs. Idenics differs from Dianetics in that no religion is attached to it, and no assumptions nor judgments are made.

Can you have a natural birth after three c-sections?

Yes, you can, but it is something you should discuss with your obstetrician. First, you have to consider the reasons for the previous cesarian sections. If they were one time problems (breech presentation, placenta previa), then a vaginal birth is something to consider. If your previous cesarians were done for obstructed labor, a small pelvis, "CPD," dysfunctional labor, or other conditions which are likely to recur, it may not be a good idea. A uterus with a scar on it is much more likely to rupture (burst open) during labor, and this can cause fetal distress or death. However, even there is a less than 1% chance of this happening, it is still a possibility, and one with potentially catastrophic consequences. The type of scar is important. If you wish to attempt VBAC, you will want to make sure your previous surgeries were done with low-transverse incisions on the uterus. You cannot tell what sort of incision you had by looking at the scar on your belly--you need to consult the operative record or ask the doctor who performed it. A previous low transverse uterine incision does not cut into the body of the uterus, and is least like to rupture. A vertical, low vertical, or "classical" incision, which goes up and down on the uterus, and is performed for complicated presentation (transverse), prematurity (undeveloped lower uterine segment), unusual blood vessels, or scarring and/or adhesions from previous surgery, is much more likely to rupture, and is a contraindication to labor. Mind you, cesarean section also holds risks for the mother and baby. It is major abdominal surgery and has a maternal mortality rate 2 to 4 times that of vaginal birth. Cesarean births can lead to trouble bonding and breastfeeding. But, when compared to VBAC, the risks of maternal morbidity and mortality are similar. Most doctors will not induce someone with two previous cesarians (because of an even higher risk of rupture than natural labor), but will allow labor to proceed naturally in a hospital setting. If you wish to try and deliver vaginally after two cesarian sections, this should be done in a hospital (not birthing center) that can perform an immediate cesarian section in case of an emergency. If you've delivered vaginally prior to your cesarian section, this would increase the likelihood of a successful VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarian).

How did the African nations win independence after World War 2?

What would the US do with the atomic bombs if they weren't been dropped in Japan?

Historians have long speculated on the course of WWII if the US hadn't dropped two atomic bombs on Japan. At one end of the spectrum is the view that the Japanese war machine was near its breaking point and that its leaders would have surrendered anyway, perhaps only a few months after they actually capitulated. On the other hand, the US War Department developed plans for a worst-case scenario in which the Imperial government, due to its long-held code of honor, chose to fight to the death. Half a million or more Allied troops would have been deployed in a land invasion. They would have met resistance potentially stronger than that put up by the Nazis, with the war possibly having lasted until 1948-1950. In either case the West's focus would have been directed away from European reconstruction for a longer time which likely would have allowed Soviet forces to occupy more territory. In addition, without having seen the horror of atomic destruction there would have been a temptation to use those weapons in some later conflict - after more-powerful bombs had been developed.

It's also been speculated that a Japanese surrender could have been achieved with far fewer civilian casualties if the bombs had been dropped on purely military targets, but again no one can know for sure.

Why did Japan fail in the Pacific war against the US in World War 2?

Well, I'm just kicking this off so don't flame me, but looking at the major engagements on wikipaedia, it seems that the Japanese empire was severely outnumbered by the allied powers; so if you check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Guadalcanal you'll see that 60,000 allied troops opposed around 40000 Japanese troops. I suspect that warfare between technologically similar societies tends to end up depended on gross numerical superiority.

What is the outcome of Italy in world war 2?

The second front. During the war the Soviet Union needed a Second front to draw Germany from there attacks on Russia. To accomplish this the invasion of Sicily and Italy was started. As the Allies fought up the Italian Countryside the Germans had to remove units from the eastern front to try to stop the Allies. As the victories happened and the Allies were able to advance the Germans had to concentrate more effort on the Italian campaign removing pressure from the Russians.

For all practical purposes, Allied victories forced Italy out of the war. US and British operations in North Africa were not meant to bail out the Soviet Union.
