i actually bought 3 commercial first aid kits in the last minth or so, plus an empty military m3 that i plan on filling myself.
chose a adventure medical kit field trauma kit, which is made for gunshot wounds.
also, their ultralight .5, and the ultralight .3.
I also invested in a gaggle of the new issue israeli trauma pads.

i also picked up 3 days of kitten MRE's at walmart.
gotta add puppy food, next.

Doggie MRE's?? kewl!!

K guys

I got my new Firesteel from Fiddleback forge and it is MASSIVE!!! I kid you NOT this thing is BIG!! For the money it isnt a bad deal either and Andy is a droog!

ANYWHO

I talked to my Dr yesterday...She suggested staples for the great unwashed...Easier and less risk of hosing the wound closing

she did however STRESS that the wound should be cleaned properly if you are going to close it and that if you cant get it cleaned then closing should be the last resort...Iodine was suggested along with Black Sav to use to get the crud (infection) out...

CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN was stressed over and over...Saline iirgation should also be used

I just hope I never get a hole in me that is so big it needs to be stabled in the first place, ....but it is best to be prepared with know-how and supplies none the less.

No kidding james!!

i have 72 hour kits, food, water, clothes, emergency poncho and blankets. the hatchet .... are in camp boxes. we have started a long term foos storage also. that is what i want to increase. i would say we have a couple months food is all so far.

hmm I need to get me a 3 day ration

hmm ramen noodles and peanut butter!

WOOHOO!!
