Two removed pamphlets approx. 9 x 5.5 inches 12 10 pages. HR Report No. 1110 and 1110 Part 2. Should a drunken sexual deviant receive a military pension The recommendation of the House Committee on Military Affairs to provide military pension relief for Civil War veteran Brown University and Harvard Law School graduate and triple Medal of Honor winner James Madison Cutts 1838-1903 whose gallantry at the Wilderness Spotsylvania and Petersburg were acknowledged by all--but who had undergone three courts-martial and resigned under a cloud in 1868. Most notoriously as recounted in the minority report here Cutts was found guilty in 1863 for his "attempt to look through the keyhole of the hotel room opposite his own" and subsequently he did take "a valise or portmanteau from and room and place it against the door of the room occupied by said lady and placing himself thereon look through the transom light of the room and into the room when the lady was undressing and preparing herself to sleep." Of course the time "he did expose himself while a passenger on the steamer T. D. Hine in an almost nude condition in full view of a number of passengers both men and women using abusive profane and vulgar language in the presence of said passengers and otherwise deporting himself in an ungentlemanly manner" didn't help his reputation much either. Or the time he seems to have set he post surgeon's house on fire while "the officer Cutts was to use a slangy term 'crazy drunk'" and came stumbling out onto the parade ground in only a shirt. Or the times he tied up enlisted men and had buckets of water thrown at them. n. p. unknown books

This was the edition in primary usage at the time of U.S. entry into World War II. Contents include: Military subjects. --Medical subjects. --Medical tactics and administration. The term military medicine has a number of potential connotations. It may mean: A medical specialty specifically a branch of occupational medicine attending to the medical risks and needs both preventive and interventional of soldiers sailors and other service members. This disparate arena has historically involved the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases especially tropical diseases and in the 20th century the ergonomics and health effects of operating military-specific machines and equipment such as submarines tanks helicopters and airplanes. Undersea and aviation medicine can be understood as subspecialties of military medicine or in any case originated as such. Few countries certify or recognize "military medicine" as a formal speciality or subspeciality in its own right. The planning and practice of the surgical management of mass battlefield casualties and the logistical and administrative considerations of establishing and operating combat support hospitals. This involves military medical hierarchies especially the organization of structured medical command and administrative systems that interact with and support deployed combat units. The administration and practice of health care for military service members and their dependents in non-deployed peacetime settings. This may as in the United States consist of a medical system paralleling all the medical specialties and sub-specialties that exist in the civilian sector. Medical research and development specifically bearing upon problems of military medical interest. Historically this encompasses all of the medical advances emerging from medical research efforts directed at addressing the problems encountered by deployed military forces e.g. vaccines or drugs for soldiers medical evacuation systems drinking water chlorination etc. many of which ultimately prove important beyond the purely military considerations that inspired them. Military medical personnel engage in humanitarian work and are "protected persons" under international humanitarian law in accordance with the First and Second Geneva Conventions and their Additional Protocols which established legally binding rules guaranteeing neutrality and protection for wounded soldiers field or ship's medical personnel and specific humanitarian institutions in an armed conflict. International humanitarian law makes no distinction between medical personnel who are members of the armed forces and who hold military ranks and those who are civilian volunteers. All medical personnel are considered non-combatants under international humanitarian law because of their humanitarian duties and they may not be attacked and not be taken as prisoners of war; hospitals and other medical facilities and transports identified as such whether they are military or civilian may not be attacked either.
