Hi Craig,

Yes, I'm a big fan of this approach - of having some of the stuff that makes up your total survival gear, but also functions as EDC, reside in an easily-accessible pocket pouch. I put into the pouch those items that I either use all the time, like the Micra, or stuff that might get pilfered from my Altoids tin, like bandages. I found a neat little zippered pouch at Galyan's called a "Marsupial Pouch," into which I insert the following:

+2.5"x4" Nylon Utility Pouch Contents:
CUTS, SCRAPES, N' ACHES
-1 medium rectangular adhesive bandage
-1 small rectangular adhesive bandage

The rest of my EDC (not in the pouch) is as follows:

This is just the stuff I usually go down the street or around the neighborhood with. For longer excursions, I of course add my trusty Altoids survival kit, and a real first aid kit with large gauze dressings, roller bandages, etc.
