KeymasterI have never had personal need for much medical gear, but I like seeing what people think is useful and helpful in their go bags and so forth. I’d like to put something together to replace my current system and have a few ideas of what I want in it, but I can’t find an organizational pouch that I’m satisifed with so help me out.
Boo boo kit, OTC meds, trauma, IFAK, or group kit…doesn’t matter. Show it off.

Booboo Kit: Antibiotic cream, burn gel, sterile pad to apply them with (alcohol pad opened), BZK towel, small band-aid, med band-aid, spider man band-aid, 2 small safety pens, med safety pen, ear plugs (purple things):
Hygiene: 2 sicks gum, floss stick, 2 Q-tips, alcohol/lens wipe:
Pharma goes in the outside zip:2 benadryl, 2 zyrtec, zantac, naproxen, imodium, ambien, tums and lance

KeymasterHere’s the one that stays in my day pack..it’s pretty basic but I plan on throwing some quick clot in it, some Oral IV’s (when they come in) and some chem lights.
Later today I’ll include a picture of my truck kit…its a big’n!

KeymasterYes, just this one, first aid station…

KeymasterHere’s one I am currently building. I use a Condor Pocket Pouch
Here it is opened. I still need to fill the transport tubes on the left with Betadine and Hydrogen Peroxide.
Here are the contents of my kit so far minus the tubes, tweezers, pen, safety pins, and tape (on the left cord)

KeymasterHere are some of mine:
This is the little one that fits into a small Loksak and sits in my EDC bag.
This is a slightly larger one that lives in the nappy (diaper) bag.
This is the one that I take hiking with me.
This is my large packable wilderness kit that I use for wilderness/overseas travel.
This is my trauma bag that goes on long car trips or is left in the car at the trailhead when going backcountry skiing etc.

KeymasterDon’t have one. I need to get one though.

KeymasterSome of you all have some awesome kits. I’ve got the basic basics. I don’t see any Israeli bandages in this thread. Not popular?
September 24, 2025 at 9:45 am #22367admin
KeymasterI watched several videos about Israeli bandages, read about them, and I think they’re a good idea. Yes, it came from Israel, and with the time it took to get here I’m convinced an old woman swam across the Atlantic with it taped to her floaties.
Having said that, I do own an Israeli bandage although it hasn’t yet migrated into my IFAK. Why? My tactical ziploc bag holding the contents of my IFAK together isn’t large enough, lol. So it kinda rides loosely in my Falcon II.

KeymasterIll take pictures of mine sometime tonight or tomorrow
