"DRIED BLOOD SAVES LIVES: Major C. K. Bleeks, of Winnipeg, is shown at a Canadian general hospital in Sicily, applying a plaster cast to the leg of a Canadian soldier wounded in Italy. At the same time the soldier is receiving a transfusion of reconstituted dried blood. The dried blood is used extensively by Canadians in the immediate saving of life. It is reconstituted simply by the addition of distilled water and air. At right is shown a "giving set" and a bottle of prepared plasma which is being made ready for use by Nursing Sister Lieut. Connie Clark, of Winnipeg, who is stationed at the same hospital as Major Bleeks." - from the Winnipeg Tribune. October 30, 1943. Page 17.
