Without a chest tube in he runs the risk of infection due to an occlusive dressing or a tension pnemo. 02 will do him no good with a shifted mediastinum. Hope they have no Morphine available.

Even with a chest tube, without a modern medical facility he's likely to die a slow, painful, agonzing death.
