Israeli Military Combat Trauma Bandage

Take my word for it, buy two. Why? Because you'll want to open one and use it for practice. Keep the other-one sealed and therefore sterile. Because this bandage is unique, some hands on practice is helpful. This truly is an amazing bandage, such a simple concept, yet so incredibly effective and versatile! Although it is not a tourniquet, it can function as one... if the bandage is really cranked tight, and that's what this thing does. It's better than a tourniquet in many ways. The practice bandage is still usable in an emergency, just beware it is no longer sterile. The video instruction is great, but take it from an old Eagle Scout...get some hands on practice with this, teach family and friends. I'd buy more, but everything seems to be getting more expensive now, and fortunately I bought two of these from BUDK a few years ago; it's time to organize and inspect all my "BUDK" type gear. Be Prepared.

Putting together a survival kit and this item is a must just in case. Compact and lite and easy to pack but big on use if you need it.

After 35 years of military service and numerous deployments in combat zones where I have seen this bandage used it is one of the most important items that a soldier can carrier in his or her individual first aid kit. This bandage can be used for all kinds of medical applications and can be applied with one hand if need be on your self. It self locks into place so as not to come undone as the wounded person is moved around. If you buy one seek out training on how to apply it to different types of wounds and how the locking clip works. For anyone adventuring into the outdoors, hiking, four wheeling, camping, fishing, etc. this product is a must in any first aid kit.

I have heard about these and now I have one, Great Item for my Medical bag. Thank s BUDK
