About the book: 1939 / Leonid Platov's story "The Right Hand" is about the wonderful people of Soviet military medicine, about those who did not directly participate in the battles at Lake Khasan, but he did a lot to win. This was all the medical personnel who worked at the front - orderlies, nurses, doctors, nannies in hospitals. They were inspired by the immortal words of Stalin that in our country the most valuable capital is people. The achievements of Soviet medicine, the most advanced in the world, the exceptional, selfless care for wounded soldiers, the heroism of medical personnel in everyday work - another victory we won at the lake Hassan. 90 percent (and in some hospitals 98 percent) of all wounded soldiers were able to return to duty.
