For a while tomato extract was thought to have many healing principles (which isn't too far off since tomatoes are so darn good for you!). After looking around for a little while I could only find rumors and not so creditable looking sources linking ketchup to being used for medicinal reasons in war. I do know that ketchup has been a part of the provisions for many military divisions because of its high antioxidant count and ability to cover up really foul tasting foods.
Irish moss and sphagnum moss have been used medicinally. The most common use of moss is as a dressing for wounds. It has been used to stop bleeding in field wounds during wars in Scotland and in the Civil War in the United States.
It was used as a medicine in the Civil War. It treated infections from wounds. No antibiotics were available then!
No, dynamite could not have been used in the US Civil War. Dynamite was not invented until 1866, or patented until 1867. The Civil War was over by May of 1865.
Amputation was the deadly medicine in the English Civil War. Infection would often sit in and kill the soldier after losing a limb.
