One sure way to render a trauma kit useless is to leave it at home. That kit with all the best components that you have trained with and is sitting on your shelf at home will be of no use to you when you bleeding out on the sidewalk.
Dark Angel Medical, makers of the D.A.R.K., are now offering a streamlined compact version called the Pocket D.A.R.K. which is designed to be a trauma kit that you can always have with you. This kit is stripped down to the barest essentials in an effort to create something that can be carried in a pocket, purse, or vehicle glove compartment.
The kit contains a handful of proven items:
- The SWAT-T which can be used as a tourniquet or pressure dressing.
- QuikClot Combat Guaze
- 4″ Israeli Bandage
- Nitrile gloves
- Protective nylon pouch

Emerson in the pocket?
It certainly looks like one.
