To reiterate what many probably don't know- tourniquets are for arterial bleeding only, and not for the average wound, nor if a wound is dripping blood. Wounds other than arterial can use a constricting band if necessary. Misuse of a tourniquet can cause permanent limb damage and possible limb loss. Thanks for the video

You’re 100% correct I’ve been in almost 20 years and unless you are special operations the Army doesn’t really teach survival and fieldcraft officially. The only time I was really taught survival was at the Mountain Warfare School in Alaska while I was stationed at Wainwright, and through classes given by myself or others to soldiers. But it’s good to see survival from a military standpoint.

eric franks That's cool that they let you ( or did they ask you? ) teach important classes to soldiers. I had no idea that our military didn't teach such basic fundamental skills like fieldcraft and survival. You would think that such vitally important skills for military men would be a very important and integral part of basic training. My Granddaddy was a WW2 combat Marine and he was taught skills like that. You needed to know that stuff to survive in the jungles of those Pacific Islands while you battled not only the Imperial Japanese Military, but the environment, exotic, tropical diseases and illnesses ( he got Malaria ) they hadn't even heard of in places they didn't know existed until they assaulted them, dangerous animals and even insects that would kill you, and so on. I assumed fieldcraft and survival was drilled into your head in basic training. I'm aware that we have SERE training ( which I guess is for special forces, recon units, scout snipers, and the like ), but I was surprised to read these comments and hear that such vitally important, life saving skills aren't part of every Soldier and Marine's training, even if you're a regular infantry rifleman. If you don't mind me asking, what is your branch of service, rank and MOS? I would guess that being a 20 year career military man, you're pretty high up. Thank you for your service to our country, and for teaching our boys in the military skills that should be required to graduate basic training. You are a true asset to our country. I would imagine that Mountain and Arctic Warfare School is tortuously grueling on your body, hard in every conceivable way, and cold as hell. Even if I were in my 20s and in my prime, I can imagine that carrying a 90 + liter ruck filled with 80 pounds of gear and kit, plus your plate carrier, weapons, mags, ammo, etc... while climbing up steep embankments, absailing, negotiating brutally rugged terrain and the like, while trying not to freeze to death, would be intense. I can't even imagine doing that on a combat, recon, and similar ops where you also have to contend with people that are trying to kill you. You, sir, must be a complete badass!

Back in 2014 at Bagram an Air Force guy carrying his tourniquet saved an Army guy who was injured who did not have his. After that everyone took their tourniquets out of their IFACs and carried them in our pockets with the tab hanging out for easy access.,,and I carried it like this for two more deployments. Great video!

We in the civilian world have learned a lot from the military on trauma in the past 20 years. One thing we teach our cops, especially the SWAT and narcotics guys, is carry a tourniquet and carry it where you can reach it with either hand. As a now retired Fire Department Paramedic, I wish we could impress upon our guys the importance of carrying a tourniquet like we teach the cops.

@@bringer-of-change I think you're right. That's why my weapons, mags, ammo to reload those mags, gear and kit, tactical gear, rucks, and so on have been upgraded and improved during the past year. A big thing ( for me, anyway ) is that the AKM is my favorite rifle and Biden's ban on importation of Russian, steel-cased ammo is causing me to hoard all of the 7.62x39mm ammo I have and can afford to buy ( especially Red Army Standard, my favorite AKM ammo, along with Wolf ). With the ammo crunch, I have even been hoarding ammo like .45ACP, .40S&W, .357 Sig, etc... when I can find the ammo I want, rather than training like I normally do. Even the cost of the components to reload the ammo has risen, which makes it more expensive as well as tedious. I have some rifles stored with chest rigs and tac vests that are set up for them, along with U.S.G.I. pistol belts set up for specific pistols and calibers, and recently bought another R.A.C.K. Vest that I set up for my .308/7.62x54mm NATO military rifles and bought some more extra mags for my .308 military rifles. I even bought another FLC that I will make into a chest rig via reversing the waist belt like I did my other FLC, and will set it up for 5.56x45mm as soon as I can get a good rifle chambered in that cartridge which I don't really like. I have also been juggling and revamping the contents of my rucks. The thing is, I mainly own large military rucks, along with their assault packs ( rucks like the ILBE and U.S.G.I. MOLLE 2 large combat ruck, 80-something to 90-something + liters surplus ). I need to get some medium rucks ( I always stick with surplus, as it's great quality stuff at way better prices than something like Eberlestock, Mystery Ranch, 5.11 Tactical ). For medium rucks, I have the Norwegian "Heroes of Telemark" ruck ( since I got it for $36 at Coleman's Surplus and it's a pretty good 36 liter ruck, even if it doesn't have MOLLE ). I'm looking for good surplus rucks in the 50-75 liter range, and am getting ready to buy a Dutch military Alpine Stingray, and I'm thinking about the U.S.G.I. MOLLE 2 medium ruck, as well as the German Flecktarn Bundeswehr current military ruck ( $60 at Coleman's Surplus ) . Any suggestions ( I don't care for ALICE Packs )? I agree that it looks as though we are going to need the weapons, gear, and supplies we've been collecting and training with all these years in the not too distant future. I've had people refer jokingly to me as "the survivalist, prepper, nut-job". People laugh at the survivalist, gun-nut until something jumps up and, like you say, it's beginning to look as if those people will be asking me for help rather than joking, especially since I live in a very rural, heavily wooded, mountain area in the U.S. South ( the kind of place most people look to bug out to, while I will fortify and bunker in as long as possible. I'm prepared to bug out if the horde of unprepared people somehow migrate towards our mountain house )

@@cthulhu6697 I can tell you know WAYY more about specific gear than I do. I wish I knew more. Hell I dont even know what brand my single strap bag is. All I know is its black, and has the rungs for molly webbing. Hell I dont even know what those are called 😄 but I know I can use it to attach things to it. I'm a decent shot and I can accurately switch targets at a decent pace and range, but the only gun I currently own is a savage 22.LR and my ammo count is not only tiny but consists of ammo so degraded it sometimes hardly escapes the barrel. My other weapons consist of a karambit knife, a big ass M-tech knife I use for throwing, S.O.G. Kukri, Camtlus machete hell idek if its truely a machete it's more like a straight tipless version of my Kukri with different teeth on the other side, and a lightweight serrated duel swords. I need to SEVERELY upgrade. I wanted to get an FS2000 but I'd settle for any bulpup AR at this point and I'd definitely like it to be chambered for 308. A TAR-21 would suffice. Also a PDW preferably a P90 for it's high ammo capacity in place of a sidearm since I seem to seriously suck with semi automatic pistols, and a 12 gauge shotgun. That's what I WANT to get anyways, but there isnt much time so i may just have to settle with an AR-15 and some kinda revolver preferably 45.Cal. I get messed with to for tryina be prepared. I got called a doom sayer who wants these bad things to happen wich really offended me given the fact that I actually just wanna help people. I need a nearly complete overhaul of my gear though seriously I just got stuff from Walmart hell half my blades came from walmart.

You've also recognized the need to go beyond the limited wilderness skills training of the US military.

Major, that was excellent! One of the things that surprised me, seeing I was part of the much ridiculed Air Force, was that when I went out in the field with the army, my field craft was way above theirs. I fully appreciate that our military has a functioning logistics system, but there are times where knowing how to operate in the field without all the benefits of the modern systems is very important. You are an excellent instructor and you will go far. You have my complete support. I was kind of hoping to run into you over at Fort Leavenworth. Would happily take you out to dinner. Anyway, you’re doing an outstanding job and you have my deep and abiding respect.

An upgrade idea to the whirlpak bags: The water bags from Wazoo Survival. Theyre heat safe to 400 degrees, so you can easily and safely boil water in them if you run out of other methods to make your water safe to drink. Again, for PACE definitely not Primary or Alternate, but a good idea for Emergency. And the size is pretty close to the same as the whirlpak ones.

Good quick video. Excellent advice. I carried such a kit on my during my ten years of Ranging in the Army. We used dry rags back then. But in all the same. That Ferber , I’ve never used. But reminds me of the M9 bayonet. Except I’ve broken two of them. First one on a trip to the NTC and 45 days living in that desert. Second time on a jump. Afterwards, I jumped the one given to my dummy corded in my Large Alice. I am lucky to carry a good outdoor knife nowadays. Anyway, you should make a video of what you suggest carrying in a combat pack. Back in my day, we had the good ol’ buttpack. It worked fine for us. Although it did mean I carried an extra pouch in my already over loaded web belt. 2x compass/compress pouches, 4x M16 mag pouches(12x30rd Mags), 2x pouches with cleaning and extras kit, the other with survival kit inside, 2x canteen pouches, buttpack. Loaded. But it did the job. And was over sized.

This is great stuff Andrew!!! Highly under appreciated TTPs for Soldier survival… I think field skills diminished greatly when we were stuck in urban combat in for many years. Growing up in the Army in the mid-90’s lots of good ideas and lessons were in the Ranger Digest… Visiting the Clothing Sales at JBLM I didn’t see them offered anymore in the professional reading book rack, very sad. I still have my Brigade QM “Tommy Cooker” I used all the time while in the field, instant coffee went a long way in the early morning before stand to. Great lesson on the chicken wire saw! Modern resources utlization must be included in 21st century Bush Crafting IMO. You can find old homesteads in the middle of nowhere, or old cattle fencing from old pastures…if you find it, use it!

My personal kit is similar, but I have built mine around the copy of a folding Esbit like cooker. It fits into a cargo pocket of my trousers or a coat. I added coffee, creamer, sugar and a pack of 6 Bouillon cubes to mine. Thanks, excellent video as always.

I've been watching your videos for quite some time. I'm a retired paramedic/ fireman from Jax, Fl. I just wanted to tell you thanks, I have learned more from your videos than from any others on you tube. I just subscribed recently. Once again thank you and keep them coming.

OMG. Do you know how many pairs of old glasses I have at home?!!!! Geesh. Seriously, I haven't had so much fun since binge-watching Gray Bearded Green Beret.

As always, Andrew, thanks for posting. I watched this video with my two sons (10 & 8) when they were visiting us this weekend. My oldest thought it was pretty neat since he is into all of the outdoor things. I know Andrew acquired all of the items in his kit from in and around his military base. However, most if not all can also be found at a good local military surplus store, and other local retailers that have any outdoors type stuff.
