[edit] Can't

Can't source it, but I've heard 12% battlefield fragmentation wounds are head wounds (43% immediately fatal), 16% chest wounds (25% immediately fatal), 11% abdominal wounds (17% immediately fatal), & body armor reduces fatalities 10-20%. Also, of combat fatigue in WW2, Germany had 13 cases:100 wounded meny, against US 3:2. Trekphiler 20:44, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
