    What do you carry? - The mega thread

    As @CALEMT said, it’s a RATS tourniquet. A good back up when I’m away from my bag.

    What do you carry? - The mega thread

    Here’s my daily carry - I don’t like a lot on my belt. The knife and flashlight change often

    EDC Bag

    It’s a little smaller than it looks, but that’s ok because it forces you to carry only what you need. I’ve owned one of and on for since 1999 and my last one I handed down to my youngest son who uses it as his daily EDC bag - still going strong and looking good after 10 years! I saw it when we...

    Duty belt

    I use the Nitecore Thumb for scene and back-of-the-rig lighting, especially on long transports when the patient is sleeping and I don’t want to disturb them. The red light is kind of weak, but the white has three or four settings. Good light for $20.

    EMT Wrist Watch - Requirements

    I have a bunch of really cool watches, but I bought this cheap Casio for work wear. It’ll get beat to heck, washed a thousand times, and generally abused. Then I’ll spend $10 and but another. It meets my needs; easy to read, sweep second hand and water resistant.

    Classroom vs field

    When I moved to SC I had to take the NREMT test. I’d been an EMT for almost 30 years at that point, so I was a bit worried that my street experience would cloud my book knowledge. I kept that in mind while studying and taking the test and I passed it with a 97%. I tell you this to say it’s all...
