I strongly recommend every FReeper carry one, and learn how to use its contents (tourniquet, burn jel, Celox or Quikclot, and more). We don't all have to become paramedics, but being able to immediately apply a tourniquet to the area above a severed limb, or to employ Quikclot granules to a profusely bleeding wound, or to remedy a sucking chest wound caused by a projectile, could very well mean the difference between life and death.
I hope you will all send me any ideas or expertise you have in this area. I have a great deal of experience from military and law enforcement service, and I feel competent to write the article, but I appreciate any input you all have.
Thanks.
