Zvezda Military 1/72 Soviet Medical Personnel 1941-42 (4) Snap Kit
Throughout the history of warfare, one major concern has been dealing with soldiers wounded during fighting. Combat medics are, in many ways, the most heroic of soldiers, willing to face enemy fire and recover their wounded comrades so they can receive medical treatment. Most medics are only lightly armed for self-defense, relying primarily on the 1864 Geneva Convention prohibition against attacking medical personnel.
Like all armies during World War II, the Red Army attached trained medics to its infantry units. Women would often serve as medics, providing aid to soldiers in need.
