The British Army Review has given permission for this article to be posted at the AMSUS website. Lt Col Ewan Cameron has provided a podcast covering this article. The subject of the article is using the Civilian Battle Damage Assessment Ration (CBDAR) as a method for assessing and tracking proportional patterns of civilian casualties from combat.
The protection of civilians from war is a common concern shared by the military, medical professionals, humanitarian organizations, and the public. There is high interest in this matter among American and British military surgeons. Systematic tracking of civilian casualties from military actions is a critical component of identifying patterns, so as to reduce and prevent the civilian casualties that military surgeons see in their operating rooms.
