So, I decided today would be a GOOD day to update my FAK in the truck.

Tossed the old triple antibotic ointment, the old drugs, added new drugs, and new ointment, updated my collection of 4x4s, checked the batteries in the flashlight (dead, and I can't open the light - time to buy another one)

The list:
1 Curad Trauma Bandage
1 "Bloodstopper" Bandage
1 box "extra large" bandaids (ther are about 2-3 times the normal size
1 Box regular bandaids
1 tube oragel (new)
1 temp filling/cap cement (again new - never thought ot tooth problems before)
2 rolls 3" gauze
1 roll 2" gauze
6 4x4s
spray neosporin
4 benydril tablets
4 advil
1 roll first aid tape (cloth)
1 pair emt shears
1 pair nytrile gloves
one folding knife (buck 110)
1 dollar change
40 ft 550 cord
1 12"x12" shop rag
1 sharpie
small screwdriver (pocket clip type)

Believe it or not, it all fits in a 30 cal ammo can - barely, but it fits. If I have to add anything, something has to go. As ther are 4 other flashlights in the truck, that will probably go, the next after that is to wrap the 550 cord as a handle for the case, after THAT, the curad trauma bandage goes - it's HUGE, and I have the bloodstopper - that would allow me to add abd pads and/or Kotex

Also remember - I alway have my backpack first aid kit if I'm anywhere with the truck - and there are "other" items there. The 2 kits have a lot of duplication, but some unique items too, for instance, provo iodine is in the pack

Other places in the truck have stored water, bug spray, sunscreen etc
