Medical and First Aid: A good first aid kit is one of the most critical components of any survival kit. Unfortunately, most survival kit suppliers overlook this and provide little more than gauze and a few band aids. Please pay close attention to the first aid contents of any survival kit and compare them to our kits; you’ll be surprised at the difference.
