• a plurality of first aid items carried by the interior sleeve;
• a left tourniquet sleeve carried by a first side of the outer shell, the left tourniquet sleeve having a left outer sleeve wall extending from a first corresponding one of the pair of side outer shell walls of the outer shell, a left sleeve interior and a left tourniquet retrieval opening corresponding in position to the first outer shell end of the outer shell;
• a left tourniquet deployed in place in the left sleeve interior of the left tourniquet sleeve, the left tourniquet selectively retrievable from the left tourniquet sleeve through the left tourniquet retrieval opening;
• a right tourniquet sleeve carried by a second side of the outer shell, the right tourniquet sleeve having a right outer sleeve wall extending from a second corresponding one of the pair of side outer shell walls of the outer shell, the right tourniquet sleeve having a right sleeve interior and a right tourniquet retrieval opening corresponding in position to the second outer shell end of the outer shell;
• a right tourniquet deployed in place in the right sleeve interior of the right tourniquet sleeve, the right tourniquet selectively retrievable from the right tourniquet sleeve through the right tourniquet retrieval opening;
• a left sleeve compression cord extending within the left outer sleeve wall of the left tourniquet sleeve;
• a right sleeve compression cord extending within the right outer sleeve wall of the right tourniquet sleeve;
• a plurality of front compression straps engaging the left sleeve compression cord and the right compression cord and extending across the front outer shell wall of the outer shell;
• and
• a plurality of rear compression straps engaging the left sleeve compression cord and the right compression cord and extending across the rear outer shell wall of the outer shell;
• and
• the left sleeve compression cord, the right sleeve compression cord, the plurality of front compression straps and the plurality of rear compression straps apply an inward compression force against the left tourniquet sleeve, the right tourniquet sleeve and the outer shell.
