One thing nobody posts about in medical bags is immodium. Most soldiers in history have died of diarrhea. It only takes three days of diarrhea to die from dehydration. While you should be fine drinking filtered + treated water and eating only food you brought, if you have to eat someone I mean something sketchy or if someone in your party has diarrhea one to five immodium could save their life. Not to mention all that tainted faeces everywhere on their clothes, in their hair, on your face, in your food, and on your fingers could make lots of people sick and die. Again, I wonder why nobody talks about this? I bought a few hundred generic immodium at costco for 10 bucks. I carry 100 in a watertight pill bottle and it hardly takes up room. Highly recommend, will save your life, you can't look cool if you shit yourself to death. Don't shit yourself to death, carry immodium.

IFAK/tape life hack taught by a squared away combat medic in Afghanistan. Use tape to make a pull tab on all of your plastic wrapped medical supplies. Even if the packaging has the easy tear open notch tape along (above) the tear notch, fold the tape back onto itself at your desired length (making the pull tab), and tape back onto the packaging. whether your hands are sweaty, bloody, etc..... it will assist with opening the packaging. furthermore rolls of tape should always be folded back onto itself making a pull tab for ease of use. trust me on this.

Hey just thought I'd say this, but ibuprofen like all NSAIDs has a blood thinning side effect. Which of course, makes it harder for your blood to clot if you suffer a life-threatening hemmorage. I suggest carrying paracetamol as your every day pain-killer instead as it has barely any known side effects aside from potential liver damage if you overdose hard. I salute that you carry extra IFAKs though, it sorta melts this medics heart to see people doing that.

[@kalikasurf]

Klobbson good lookin out, brother!!!! 👍🏻

[@GarandThumb]

Klobbson thanks for the comments doc!

[@Argentum88]

All OTC medicines will melt an organ if you use too much of it. Personally I find NSAIDs far more effective for pain relief than Paracetamol/Acetaminophen AKA Tylenol. Aspirin is notoriously bad for blood clotting but great if someone suffers a heart attack or ischemic stroke for those of us civilian side. Gotta pick your poison. Right tool for the right job.

[@klobbson]

Much agreed, not hating on NSAIDs when used for the right things. I used diklofenac gel for most of my sports injuries when I played hockey with great effect and the blood thinning effect can be considered a feature in the cases you mentioned. Though in this case I felt obligated to educate a fellow service member on NSAID side effects and why they're bad in a military/trauma context.

[@ButtersRazz]

As someone who barely notice any difference between taking painkillers and not taking them makes me wonder, how much diffrence do you other people feel by taking painkillers? Cause if someone had a life-threatening hemmorage I wouldn't think about giving them ibuprofen or paracetamol cause in my world they would do jack and shit.

Interesting choice of gear. **You should mention that long-term storage of any sleeping bag or puffy clothes means letting them lay FULLY open and UNcompresed. Otherwise loft (thickness) and therefore insulative value will be lost when stored compressed. Most good sleeping bags come with a large storage bag of about a 10 gallon size.

Years ago, when I represented a different pack mfg., I purchased Tactical Tailor 3 day packs for myself. 40 years ago, I was hoofing through central, southern and eastern Asia. My pack weighed 19 pounds and I ate locally. Thereafter, for years, my situation in the US was that I would carry sealed and locked down duffel bags with gear in the car and an empty pack. In an urban setting, I would have to go to ground or underground if shtf and take the time to assess what specific gear I would need to put in my pack and also change clothes. It is nice to have a go bag at home or ready to go, but I simply could not use that approach. Now, I am at a stage that I am old enough to be your grandfather. Can't do miles with a 40 pound pack.

The Cannae Phalanx is a good pack. The extra side pouch is an add-on from Cannae called the EDC 9x6 Storage Pouch which MOLLEs onto the open pocket on the side.

I hope this information is never useful to me, but it was definitely very informative and well put together! Kudos to you, good sir!

An air mattress or something similar is essential in cold-ish weather. It works well with a quilt (to save space and weight, and to not feel trapped in a sack in hostile territory). Goodnight when you carry an extreme weather sleeping bag, but sleep directly on the ground. You'll freeze even at moderate temperatures. A bivvy bag or poncho+liner is also quicker and less noticable than a tarp. Also have anti diarrhea medication and water purification (filter and/or tablets). Some caffeine or pre-work out powder, sportsdrink powder. And off course a water bladder, you probably pack that outside the pack, so you have it on you when not wearing the pack. For underwear, wear synthetic or merino wool. No cotton. Carrying extra underwear isn't absolutely essential in a 3day pack, socks are. It might be a good plan to pack a regular underpants and wear a thermal in slightly colder temperatures. Switch when temperature will likely go up. Great video.

[@thegeth4293]

Bring underwear dude, dont be gross

[@FellsApprentice]

Personally, I've found that in extremely cold temperatures, the air contracts and actually deflates the air mattress, now I use a foam one instead.

Underrated items are clear trash bags, field expedient poncho, and you can use them in a few different ways to get water i.e. tying them to a green plant, digging a hole and putting them over it etc.. they have a ton of other uses as well

[@GunBigotHater]

I’m a veteran, but the Navy didn’t teach us about such things. If there is a time we need to rough it, this is useful info. When you’re avoiding contact of large numbers of invaders, knowing how to break the surface in water burning with fuel oil, isn’t all that helpful. I appreciate your taking the time to show us these things.

[@justsomeguy3931]

Great advice about backpacks and how to run them with these videos. I appreciate it, thanks. How would you pack a civilian EDC self-defense backpack? One meant to not look militarized (camo colors, mollee straps, etc.), but still be an effective tool (bullet proof plate to use as a shield, 1st aid kit, etc.), the kind people who go for the "grey man" approach would use when they want to be prepared, but look like every other sheeple walking around. That should cover the civilian scale of this topic The only other question I can imagine is covering how to pack a ruck you're going to do a HALO jump with, or make a covert SCUBA infiltration like the commercials they always show on TV, etc. That should cover the military scale on this topic. All the videos you shared seem to focus on ground based movement An entire video on hydration systems and or armor plates in backpacks would also be cool

+Garand Thumb This is going to be kind of a weird post. I'm a long-distance storm-chaser/meteorologist. A lot of the advice you give here applies to my situation, operating in the US Great Plains. I'm a soft-belly civilian based in CO, but drive to "hot spots" where I might photograph tornadoes and severe weather. I am usually alone on my excursions, and just never know what trouble I might encounter. So, weaponry, medical and nav gear is paramount. I usually end up in disaster areas, where supplies may be limited, hence, food and water. Great advice here, and I enjoy your wit, humor and clear explanations. Thank you for the expert tips. (Oh, if you use baby wipes on your butthole, I recommend applying skin lotion afterward to avoid irritation from the antibacterial cleaner. Yes, I have experience with this LOL.)

I have owned a 35 liter Camelbak Commander camo hunting pack for 6 years. I added an aluminum internal frame and REI Ridgeline padded hip belt, two side pockets plus bottom straps for sleeping pad attachment. It has seen a LOT of 30 lb. training hikes and shows no signs of wearing out. Amazing quality. I've even ski camped with it in Nevada. Oh, yeah, "maniac", I carry personal meds like Immodium in my 1st aid kit. The Shanghai Shits are murder!
