label for casualties

These labels were distributed to those working in the rescue and medical services. This side of the label asks for information about the location and identity of the body or casualty and the injuries sustained. Sometimes the extent of a person's injuries could make it difficult for relatives to recognise the deceased, which could only make it more traumatic.
