The basic field dressing stops absorbing rather quickly if there is a real bleeder. Your guys are better off with the small abdominal dressings.

The old dressings are rare in theater (at least in our portion of it) and have been replaced almost exclusively by Israeli dressings...

Ain't no one getting out of this world alive. All you can do is try to have some choice in the way you go. Prepare yourself (and your affairs), and when your number is up, die on your feet fighting rather than on your knees. And make the SOBs pay dearly."
