Added by you Occlusive dressing for sucking chest wounds:

Benzoin Tincture- to use for above dressing. When the bleeding is there the asherman chest seal does not want to stick.

Kerlex great for wrapping sam splints, ice packs, pressure dressings for gauze.

Nasal Pharyngal- This would be a great addition to your airway along with a tube of steri-lube. I would not suggest to everyone yet I am sure you have a good bit of medical training. Can use with patient unconsciousness or awake without the gag reflex. (there are some limitation on when to use during maxillofacial injuries.)

14 gauge needle in case of a tension pneumothorax (Collapsed Lung) again not for everyone yet again you should have enough knowledge to use this.

I would also add a CAT Tourniquet never know what could happen miles away from nowhere and could definitely save someone's life.

Mole skin

Space Blanket or a Woobie (I recommend the Kifaru)

Rehydration salts

Steri-strips good for cuts that need stitches.

I would also add the book Wilderness Medicine.

That is about all I can think o off the top of my head. I have a bag that stays with me with all my trauma stuff and field surgical when I am out. I am going to refine a kit for the F and will come p with a complete list I would like to talk to a couple of the manufactures out there that make bags for the FJ and put together some type of kit for everyone else. PM me I would be happy to send you a few of these items.
