Sorry to interrupt the "mongols in Xinjiang" thing. I just had a question popped up in my head and I don't know where else to put it.
So, I figure that about the only good thing that came out of the twenty-or-so years waste of human lives and energy known as "the Global War on Terror" was improvement in trauma care, especially in the field.
One example of which is tourniquet usage. In the olden days, it was discouraged as "last resort" for fear of loss of limb from necrosis (and if you have taken a CPR/first aid course as recent as late 2000s in Canada, you would have heard it). However, nowadays it is actively encouraged to use it if one if available, and as a first resort.
Aggresive usage of tourniquet leads to another topic, which is proliferation of first aid/buddy aid kit. While issuing field dressing to everyone is not a new concept, having a entire kit of various stuff on top of dressing issued to everyone is pretty new. US Army Improved First Aid Kit circa early 2010s has, at least to my knowledge: CAT tourniquet, "Israeli" pressure dressing, QuikClot gauze (hemostatic agent/wound dressing), and nasopharyngeal airway aka nasal trumpet for airway management. Obviously, this is much more elaborate than WWII-era of "sulfa" powder/tablet and wound dressing.
Now, to move the focus back to PLA, while there are a lot of pictures of PLAGF troops in hi-speed-lo-drag gears, I haven't seen anything resembling first aid kit on them. Then again, I might just be blind and missed it. And in Galwan videos, you can obviously see wounded POWs with various form of dressings on them, so that means someone in the field is obviously carrying them, and in sufficient quantities. So now my question is: what is PLAGF's doctrine on personal first aid kit (if there is any)? And if it exists, what is the content? And by extension, what is PLAGF's doctrine on casualty treatment and extraction?
P.S. I don't really need PatchworkChimera(RIP)-level of write-up. Just the basics is fine. Also, if this is classified for some reason, please let me know. I don't want anyone get into trouble over this.
