Thank you so much for posting this! It was nice to know that the conclusions I came to regarding “what would I do? What does my med kit need?” meshed nicely with his.

He didn’t mention sanitary napkins (great for pressure bleeds) and now I’m wondering how to fit those around my ankle, inside my Justin boots! Oh, the sacrifices we make for safety/fashion!

Amazon assures me that my tourniquets, Israeli bandage and quick clot will be here Monday. One always has to learn from these really horrible events.

I like the way this gentleman presented his info.

Me too, but be forewarned... if you start watching his videos, you'll quickly find yourself binge watching more of them. John is like potato chips that way. :)

Thank you for mentioning them. I only recently added tourniquets and Israeli bandages to the kit I carry in my car. Because of your comment I read up on the topic. I was missing the knowledge of how the fibrous material encourages clotting.
