The SWAT appeals to me because it seems somewhat more versatile. What about it makes it more difficult to retard arterial bleeding?
This is intriguing; I was trained during a phase when tourniquets were regarded askance; they are now currently in favor. I have stopped a lot of bleeding and I think it is time to include a T in my kit. A lot of this seems to be due to gunshots (Montenaro's ) vs mine (almost no gunshots, just blunt trauma).
