Leave the textbook headline for later — it is usually Plankton. We would type Apron: Deep Cut, +85, 5 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Antiseptic, Bandage, Gauze, or Painkillers — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Mercurochrome (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.
Trench spelling, only if you already know it: Mercurochrome +100
