MY TOURNIQUET POST the other day produced this email from David Kirkham:

If you are interested in having a tourniquet in your car I’ll get you the latest and greatest. This was invented by my brother who has spent a long time in combat. We helped him refine the aluminum parts. It is light and can be applied with one arm. When I asked him why that was important he responded, “Sometimes that’s all you have.”

The tourniquet is fast and extremely effective. Combat proven.

I’m going to take a look, though I have not plans to give one a full-scale trial. . . .
