    Author: Hall A, Sexton J, Lynch B, Boecker F, Davis EP, Sturgill E, Steinmetz M, Shackelford S, Gurney J, Stockinger Z, King B.
    Journal: Mil Med; 2018 Sep 01; 183(suppl_2):168-171. PubMed ID: 30189058.
    Abstract:
    Historically, cold injury, hypothermia, and frostbite have been severe problems for military units on the battlefield. Kenneth D. Orr and David C. Fainer captured these difficulties in their book, Cold Injuries in Korea During Winter of 1950-51, still cited in military medical readiness training. While not common in modern conflicts, the potential exists for large numbers of these casualties in war and during training.
