I found the few medical items to be lacking also. My solution? A duplicate kit dedicated solely to medical gear. Acquire a duplicate to your altoid tin etc. The "one or two" meds,bandages and topicals are now exponentially greater in number and usefullness. Remember too, a small folding knife, matches for sterilization, bandanna for sling or compress, sealing tape for tins are all first aid items. Who invented the single pocket tin rule anyway? I carry one in each breast pocket or riding chaps. They keep me from veering to the left now and constantly taking new compass bearings.<br><br><P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by Chris Kavanaugh on 10/03/01 11:20 AM (server time).</EM></FONT></P>
