The worst is either the Civil War or WWI... basically whenever technology to kill prople had far surpassed medical ability to save them. It has only gotten "better" relatively speaking since.

Not that any of it is ice cream and ping pong unless you're a retard from Alabama.

It’s not just the medicine. Weapons suddenly became far deadlier before both wars and battle tactics were very slow to adjust. Lines of men marching towards each other was standard procedure for way too long. The accuracy of the mini ball in the civil war and the destruction of artillery in WWI made for huge killing fields.
