Blighty wound, also known as a peace wound, is a term used to refer to an injury sustained during battle that is severe enough to send the soldier home. While the phrase originates from World War I, it's still used in some military circles today. Other synonyms for Blighty wound or peace wound include "million-dollar wound," "cushy wound," and "safe wound." These phrases reflect the sentiment that being sent home with an injury was preferable to risking one's life on the front lines. Regardless of the terminology used, being injured in battle is a difficult experience that often leaves long-lasting physical and emotional scars.
