Interesting swatsurgeon. For what is worth, when I was in and we were being crossed trained by our team medics, we were taught basically what I've read in this thread. That being apply the tourniquet (although, didn't look like the one in the pic. A rolled up piece of clothing or whatever and a stick or something similar). Anyway, just enough to stem the bleeding and we were taught, once applied, leave it alone til a medic or Dr took over. That was some 30 odd years ago, and I'm certainly not medic qualified. Merely relating some old training.
