They have field medics. What's the quality of their field medics? Well...at one of the riots, a rioter was shot in the leg with a rubber bullet. The bullet grazed the skin. Looked like it really hurt, but nothing serious. Even if it didn't get dressed, it would probably be fine. So what did these graduates of the Karl Marx School of Medicine do? They proceeded to tourniquet the guy's leg.

It's not about if the tourniquet works or if it is even needed.
What matters is how the tourniquet makes the medic feel for helping xhis comrade.
Of course a nazi like you wouldn't understand that.
Sounds like he got the medical care he deserved.
