This bag is the older ALICE-era design, whereas the current issued bags are typically coyote brown and made out of 1000D Cordura. The fabric of this bag is much like the nylon material that ALICE rucks are manufactured with. It has some shine to it, and feeling thinner than ALICE ruck nylon, I feel like it would tear easily. When funds permit, I'd like to move the contents of this bag into a better bag. In the meantime, I will be spraying this bag with a water-proofing spray to at least attempt to add weather resistance.
The military's purpose for this bag is to address combat injuries on the battlefield. MY intent for this bag, is to be a part of my 3rd line, and be my rolling pharmacy. I have neither the training or expertise required to load this bag up with equipment for advanced trauma care. Like anything else, this bag is constantly a work in progress. Over the counter medications and various types of tape and bandages will be added to the bag. This bag currently resides in my truck for emergencies.
The contents of the bag are pretty straight forward. If you have a question about any of the items shown, shoot me a message or comment and I'll do my best to answer your questions.
