#ECAS2025, where @alilacandonga.bsky.social and I had wonderful two panels on medical socialist entanglements between Eastern Europe and Africa, including, among others, @severyandyakonov.bsky.social. Also heard some excellent talks on veterans, memory of anti-colonial wars and public health!

Besides highlighting the similarities in military medicine, disability care, and veterans’ welfare, the paper illuminates the importance of care for the wounded and disabled, and symbolism of the wounded fighter as vital for Yugoslav medical assistance to Algeria‘s FLN.
