he
TacMed™ Uniformed Medical Kit (UMK) 2nd Generation builds upon
the success of the first generation UMK. The UMK 2nd Gen greatly
decreases the signature of the device over the original by moving the
medical gear and pockets behind a flat panel, eliminating any imprinting
under the officer's duty shirt. In addition, the UMK 2nd Gen increases
comfort and durability as it reduces the thickness of the device with a
new material that stretches to the shape of the officer's vest. The new
design allows the UMK 2nd Gen to fit ANY concealed body armor carrier
that utilizes hook and loop straps, plus the sides can be trimmed for a
custom fit. The UMK 2nd Generation is designed to carry the SOF®
Tactical Tourniquet-Wide with additional pockets designed to carry a set
of chest seals, hemostatic agent, and the Esmark Bandage.
Benefits of the UMK 2nd Generation:
- *** New design adapts the device to fit a wide variety of body types
- *** New design features an even lower profile... No imprinting under the officer's duty shirt!
- Central placement provides the officer instant ambidextrous access to their medical kit
- Allows the uniformed officer to carry a complete medical kit on them at all times
- Creates instant recognition among officers of the placement of medical gear
- Instant
access to trauma gear saves precious time, allowing the officer to
provide self-aid and responding officers to provide buddy-aid in the
case of a serious injury.
