battlefield medic

on arrival at the scene of the ambush you start immediate triage and find:
one man with head wound, brain matter exposed, resps 10 shallow, pulse unpalp, loc.
one man with traumatic amputation of both legs below the knee, blood vessal'd cauterised by the explosion, resps 26, pulse 130, alert with no pain.
one man with complete bruising to whole chest and abdo with obvious flail segment's, resps 32 and laboured, pulse 140 weak and thready, loc
one man with an evisceration , resps 26, pulse 120, screaming and in severe pain

prioritise for evac:
the coy cmdr has dispached the remaining medics in the coy to you but you have to make do with the element's that you have due to the fighting that is going on to your front, there is a lot of battle debri so the engineer's are taken up with eod and making safe lane's, the casualty clearing station is 900m's to your rear and starlight is there.
