The number 1 cause of death in combat is blood loss so every medic or 1st aid bag must have a CAT or similar tourniquet. Thanks for the info, it serves as a great reminder.

I just read an article somewhere else (PoliceOne, I think) that also suggested the CAT from North American Rescue. Good info about Brownells, also. I get the discount because I have a C&R FFL. I didn't know they also give the discount to LEOs. There is a big price difference on some items! Stay safe! Richard Thanks for posting the link.

The kit looks good and comes in a resealable plastic bag. I bought it to put into my bailout bag and will soon buy another one to go with my clan lab armor and gear. I was also looking at the Combat Action Tourniquet from North American Rescue http://www.narescue.com/category.aspx?SID=1&Category_ID=145. I spoke with a combat medic from a nearby swat team. He is a doctor assigned to the swat team. He had nothing but good things to say about the equipment from NAR. Good site and excellent catalog too. Remember with Brownells, if you sign up with them and provide proof of being a law enforcement officer, you get the same wholesale prices as the gunsmiths. A BIG benefit.
