Gas, exploding shell fragments ( still a real hazard), pieces of glass from battle-damaged buildings, all are causes of combatant eye injuries. One is not aware of how many soldiers were blinded in both world wars. a motion picture given the ( sweet talk) title Pride of the Marines, dealth with the case history of a Marine who was blinded by shell or grenade fragments after killing 37 of the enemy on Guadalcanal. in the film he was totally blinded. ads and posters for the film reflected a ( Yankee doodle) marching band sort of light head angle totally- well, Off Base, heavy stuff.
