This history of osrd is intended to be a survey of the way in which certain weapons were developed, improved, or brought into use and medical knowledge was extended and applied to military situations. It is not intended to be a complete documentary record of the making of the inventions that happen to be mentioned in it. Therefore the dates used, which serve to outline the general chronology, do not necessarily establish dates of conception of inventions, Of their reduction to practice, or Of occasions of first use. Moreover, in the interest Of simplicity, credit for the development of a device is frequently given to a group identified by the name Of its leader, rather than to the individual who was the actual inventor.
