In first aid and triage, the walking wounded are injured persons who are of a relatively low priority. These patients are conscious and breathing and will often have only relatively minor injuries; thus they are capable of walking. Depending on the resources available, and the abilities of the injured persons, walking wounded may sometimes be used to assist treatment of more seriously injured patients or assist with other tasks.
In most mass casualty situations, the walking wounded are the largest category of casualty.
Classification
According to Simple Triage and Rapid Treatment (START) documentation, walking wounded are determined by requesting those on the scene who may self-evacuate, to do so immediately to a designated refuge. Any casualties able to respond to this command and move themselves to the designated position are considered walking wounded.
According to the Revised Trauma Score (RTS) system of triaging, walking wounded can be considered to be those scoring a 12.
Walking Wounded is a 1996 album by Everything but the Girl, their ninth studio release. It is their highest charting album to date, reaching number 4 in the UK and number 37 in the US.
This was the first album in which the group adopted a more electronic and dance style after the success of the remixed version of "Missing" from their previous album, Amplified Heart. The album's cover art (see photo) is unusual in that it features an album's barcode on both the front and back of the album.
Several tracks from the album were released as singles, including 'the cinematic drum 'n' bass-pop crossover' "Walking Wounded" (number 6 on the Top 40), the 'thumping house' "Wrong" (number 8 on the Top 40), and the downtempo "Single" that set Thorn's emotionally direct vocal against breakbeats, organ and strings.
The album was reissued by Edsel Records as a 2-disc deluxe set in 2015.

The evening light still pale I went out to the mail My movements like a snail Apologies from a friend I'm spread out so thin It's time to start again Greetings from the walking wounded Did you just see what the moon did? Maybe my eyes were playing tricks on me Went away but I'm not forgetting Far enough from Armageddon Maybe, maybe only I can see So what are you dying for? The place ain't there no more It's been gutted to the core So take your tragedies And send them off to me With your apologies Greetings from the walking wounded Did you just see what the moon did? Maybe my eyes were playing tricks on me Went away but I'm not forgetting Far enough from Armageddon Maybe, maybe only I can see Maybe its something only I can see Maybe only I can see Maybe its something only I can see Maybe only I can see Greetings from the walking wounded Did you just see what the moon did? Maybe my eyes were playing tricks on me Went away but I'm not forgetting Far enough from Armageddon Maybe, maybe only I can see Yeah, yeah, yeah Maybe only I can see, only I can see
