Well I was gifted an older US army 65 Liter back pack along with a 4 piece military sleep system. Not sure I’ll use the whole sleep system but the back pack was a nice gift and the sleeping bag in the sleeping system is nice. And it all folds into a stuff sack. The back pack is awesome and was a very generous gift.
I’m also working on making a home made first aid kit. So far in my first aid kit I’ve got Hibiclense Saline solution 2 packs of 4x4 sterile gauze An assortment of band aides 4 4x4 non stick bandages A few rolls of gauze bandages Tape -ibuprofen Benadryl Tylenol And a small pair of trauma shears
I would consider adding a SOF or CAT tourniquet to the first aid kit; and learn how to properly utilize it. For the size and weight there's no reason not to have a tourniquet when you may be quite some distance from help.
