Always top shelf instruction. My brain tumor surgery is coming up 03/21/2023. Thirteenth anniversary of the day I first had the grand mal surgery. Doctors said I would likely never walk again, and would probably be dead by now. My apologies for being a chatty Kathy today everyone. Never let a diagnosis determine your future.🤙

[@mannihh5274]

That's actually one of the best survival kits I've seen - not too small and gimmicky, but small enough for a cargo pocket with all the essentials - thanks for showing.

I love these videos

[@mattydread66]

Love the tape sachet idea! I’m always messing around with large straws then melting the ends shut. This seems way quicker and more versatile. Plus you have extra tape! Always love your channel and your teaching style. Keep it up! Thanks! 👊

[@najroe]

agreed, couple smaller hooks would be great. might I recommend few things more. First, handfull of fishing flies, say gold ribbed hares ear-both with and without gold bead head, killer bug, red tag, cardinal... those increase chances of catching fish, frogs... without bait. second, attaching a 250mm fluorocarbon leader with a loop on end to all hooks and flies is a good idea, it is much easier to deal with if injured or cold. third couple large hooks with 400mm long wire might be a good idea to put in there for catching pike, catfish, burbot... using fisgguts or smaller fush for bait.

[@Menuki]

You can do a similar with the moral patch on the front. Use the Velcro like tape to hold it onto the pouch

[@Jaden48108]

I keep a similar survival pouch in the console of my car. It's large enough to hold numerous items but small enough to fit in a pocket if I have to hoof it. Nice vid.

12-B in a psst life here. I'm in the construction biz these days, and in both the Army and my current vocation, tie wire is a great addition to an emergency kit for securing items or a quick repair. Tougher than zip ties and reusable, you can easily stash it in your current kit that you can pre cut in pieces or a 6 to 10 foot length. Needless to say it's uses are countless for a Combat Engineer or construction worker.

[@jamescrowe7892]

The pouch holds a lot of kit. Especially like the striker paper affixed to the back of the signal mirror and the candle wax applied to the book of matches. 6 years as a private, huh. I never would have guessed. Just kidding. But that is how you made it sound. Your channel is one of the best. Always learning something new and and having past lessons reinforced. Keep on rockin', Major.

[@unfi6798]

We do survice out of our pocket, even before pocket got invented. Looks like a standard carry when in the woods. Great kit for minimalist bushcrater. Cheers Major.

[@dougbotimer8005]

I’ve been using the same Spec-Ops pouch, in black, for years. It was my suburban walking possibles bag. Like your kits, emphasis on illumination, communication/signaling. I appreciate that unlike many others, you emphasize signaling as a priority in most scenarios. Then my walking pouch has first-aid items, blister kit, to keep me walking. And in case I couldn’t keep walking, a poncho or Mylar blanket for extra protection from the elements. Lastly, extra poop bags, which were handy for more than cleaning up after the dog.

[@m118lr]

Wow. Never have seen SUCH a squared-away survival kit..awesome and comprehensive with ZERO questionable stuff IMO. GREAT vid! Thanks..

[@greyscout01]

Great little video. It never ceases to amaze me how much people can get into a small kit when it's well thought out. I particularly like this one. I'll be attaching a 2nd one to my kayak within days. Thanks!

[@timporter8886]

Who would believe you could get so much survival kit in that small pouch! The fishing and sewing kits in tape is such a clever idea! Thanks Andrew, another great post!

[@ROOSTER333]

The freaking tea candle on the matches is the coolest low tech high IQ shit I've seen in awhile

[@ec6052]

Strike Anywhere matches dipped in wax or in a match safe imo is the best option for matches. Waterproof, Stormproof, it's all useless if that striker gets wet or wears out. Which they do! Under good circumstances you'll wear out one striker on a single box but I bet most people who don't use them on a regular occasion will run out of striker before matches and that's not counting being under poor conditions or stress. The paper one's are terrible in damp conditions, when you need them most! You'll get a few fires but you'll have to be so very careful to make them all last in wet environments, you'll need a way to dry your hands to get more than a few uses out of a pack. Although I live in the wettest/foggiest place on Earth according to Guinness. So most others may not experience this problem as much but if it works here, it'll work everywhere.

[@VAMobMember]

I bought some MREs on the open market that SEEMED to be military rations but there were no matches. Years ago they were included.

[@peterbogart4531]

Glad to hear that you are a "Maverick," Skipper! So was David Hackworth, so you are in great company. A thesis: a cohesive Army company can be based on an ideal maximum number of 148 Soldiers to maintain a "real community." Vladimir Peniakoff of "Popski's Private Army" in WWII kept his highly successful Commando unit to 120 troops. Likely 120 was the maximum number of ornery individuals he could keep in mind at one time. Voltaire, a philosopher, not Bonaparte, a soldier, was the one who said that wars are won by big battalions. Actually won by battalions built of cohesive companies. Some talk now of 15-Soldier squads. Might not as well have 8 buddy-pairs? We must choose the best tools for the job, in any case, though. Great Kit, sir!

[@RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft]

I had 170 at max during my command time and that includes attachments.

[@peterbogart4531]

@@RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft Sir, T Y in the extreme! 170 can be a handful number under one company commander, although 200 or so may be common. A friend of mine who was in the 1st Air Cavalry in Vietnam in 1967 & 68 was a mortarman (81 mm) constantly in the field with a company of a mere 63 or so. Something additional to remember is that the original British commandos training our first G.I. Rangers, one G.I. of whom was my then 22-year-old father, in Scotland and Ireland, trained & operated in groups limited in size by the capacity of the boats used to land the troops. Robert W. Black in "Rangers in World War II" gives Ranger units of 65 to 71 G.I. troopers within a battalion of 467 all ranks. Regular American rifle battalions ran 22 officers & 864 men.

[@henriyoung3895]

In Nam, we called the fire starting tabs, "heat tabs". They came with our C rations. ( C rats). That is how we heated our food. Secondly, place a lite heat tab in an empty C rat can.

I thoroughly enjoy the videos you put out. I especially appreciate the thought that goes into each one and the way you think about a lot of detail for every item

[@chrisj2713]

Lots of really good ideas in here in definitely gonna use the duct tape stash idea. My only criticism is I would suggest smaller fish hooks. It's much easier to find tiny fish and a minnow skewer will keep you alive just fine. I generally keep salmon egg hooks in my kit. You could replace one of the hooks in your kit with 4 of those tiny hooks. Just my 2 cents from practical experience in my area.

[@najroe]

I agree, another is having a few smallish fishing flies (size 14 -size 10) in the kit (gold ribbed hares ear-both with and without gold bead head, killer bug, red tag...) as they might catch you food without bait. also good idea to put a 250mm fluorocarbon leader with a loop on end to all hooks/flies , why? you might be injured or cold making it difficult to tie knots to the hooks but managing to atach to a monofilament loop is likely possible with even one hand.

[@wb5mgr]

Couple of more modern items you may want to consider adding a small piece of to this kit. A wal-mart or lowes/home depot you can buy a product called flex tape… this can patch almost anything from a damaged boot to a canoe. If you put a 1-3’ piece rolled up in the kit that is a great item. Just don’t remove the peel off backing. It probably could even be burned for tinder in a pinch. I also would like to see a length of bicycle inner tube maybe a foot long. Makes excellent tinder as well as rubber bands that won’t break for lashing. You actually can buy a whole inner tube and if you leave it packed its rather small, but maybe not small enough. You even can heat seal your fire kit like matches and such inside a piece of inner tube with a heat sealing machine melting the ends shut. Making a waterproof container. I also would suggest you have some cash money. You never know when you might have to bribe a local… just saying.

Those two items are quite common, actually: signal mirrors in all sizes can easily be found at stores like REI and its competitors, while the firetabs can be found in similar places, and/or manufactures by companies like SOL and Exotac.
