Select the sentence in this passage that demonstrates the fallacy of evasion
the civil war was the bloodiest conflict in the history of the united states. more than 600,000 soldiers lost their lives. the wounded often suffered acute pain in the field hospitals. william hammond, the surgeon general of the union army, created a new system of sanitary field care. it is probable without hammond's new system, more soldiers would have lost their lives. however, he deserves little credit, for since that time, still greater strides have been made in battlefield medicine.
