Verified SWAT
The newer CATs, especially the Gen7s are GTG.
I like the SOFTT Wide. I don't like the stupid screw on the original SOFTT. Its another step that people forget and its a very crucial. After teaching people on that tourniquet I feel like a broken record. The SOFTT Wide has the easy D ring to clip on and go. No velcro sticking to itself, no screw, comes apart easy to wrap around a limp if you need to.
- Interesting to see where the officer keeps his tourniquet
Fucking sucks that some folks are still resistant to this subject, saying, "I am not paid to play SWAT medic".
M.
Is this really that great of work? I'm surprised to see no one mentioning that he should have used a knee to apply some pressure while he fumbled with the tournoquet.
I'm surpirsed the guy made it, if he did, after seeing how much blood he lost.
He made it. More on the story...I'm surpirsed the guy made it, if he did, after seeing how much blood he lost.
@Hillclimb , my experience is non Tactical Medics and some law enforcement officers are slow to adopt it because they see it as high-speed SWAT stuff. A TCCC/tacmed thing, not necessarily a tourniquet thing.

To echo what @Diamondback 2/2 said, we had windlasses and also had the little plastic retainer ears break.
