Let's see...difficulty in breathing, a sucking sound when the victim tries to, lots of blood on the chest part of his uniform, and big holes in the troop's chest are all symptoms of an open chest wound.
One thing that must be pointed out: Open chest wounds in combat often come in pairs - one on the front where the bullet entered, one on the back where it exited. Make absolutely sure you check for that second one; patching up one sucking chest wound won't help the soldier breathe better if he has two.
