Summary/Abstract: The existing descriptions and analyses of fierce combats fought by legionaries in Volhynia in 1915 and 1916 need to be completed with a picture of everyday existence, tiredness, hunger, illnesses, stress and distress tormenting soldiers in the front line. Help was provided by medical personnel. The present article attempts to fill in this gap, presenting the state of organisation, tasks, problems and results of activities conducted by the -legionary health service. It was based on archival research as well as on sparse and dispersed reports.
