In the military they teach you that your first aid is for you.In other words you use the first aid kit of the person that you are giving aid to.If you do not maintain or restock your kit,It can not help someone help you.If you go on an outing with me and you get hurt it sucks to be you.I'll still help you but you wil get the bill times two to replace what I used.
You can make a good first aid kit rather cheaply.Maxipads and vetwrap for major gashes.A tampon or two for bullet wounds and a corner off an bed sheet for a triangle bandage (cravat).Add in a box of fabric handy man variety Bandaids and a tube of triple antibiotic ointment for the booboos.This can be put in a doubled up Quart size freezer bags.You may even have some room for some 4X4'sand some tape.This cuold be carried in a cargo pocket or an outside pocket of a pack.If you get into the 4X4's, maxipads or tampons your outing should end.
HAVING SOMETHING TO STOP MAJOR BLEEDING COULD SAVE SOMEONES LIFE
(maybe your own)SO WHY NOT CARRY ONE!!!!!!
