The own experience of war activities of the ending 18th and the early 19th century led several physicians who participated in these activities to write down their personal memoirs. Among these the autobiography of the physician Wenzel Krimer graduated in Halle is of particular value. It describes the engagement of a physician, who later on obtained a scientific reputation, in the field of military medicine and does not keep back criticism concerning organisational deficiencies. Similarly to the report of Johann Christian Reil Krimer's memoirs are a significant document of that time for the events of the War of Liberation.
18世纪末19世纪初的战争活动经历,促使几位参与其中的医生写下了他们的个人回忆录。其中,哈雷大学毕业的医生文策尔·克里默的自传具有特殊价值。它描述了一位后来获得科学界声誉的医生在军事医学领域的参与情况,并且毫不避讳地批评了组织上的缺陷。与约翰·克里斯蒂安·赖尔的报告类似,克里默的回忆录是那个时代解放战争事件的重要文献。
