USMC doesnt use field dressings.
Title says it all. We are all issued IFAKs(Individual First Aid Kits). I have one and i am prepared to show you pictures of the things that come with it if you are interested.
If you want to keep using the dressing i can understand.

A source link about the issued medic kit would help to.

No offense but i would rather wait for a DEV's response.

Re: USMC doesnt use field dressings.
I would like to see what they are using defiantly! But it will most likely not be worth making as from a gameplay perspective, the field dressing dose the same, basic job.
I've seen a British Field dressing, courtesy of Undies and its pretty damn close to what we have ingame

Re: USMC doesnt use field dressings.
Wait... what does having a British field dressing have to do with the Bovington thing(besides both having to do with the British)? Anyway, I'm guess the IFAK is just like a little box (I'm guessing) with stuff like a small pair of scissors (because it's a first aid kit), bandages or something, and other stuff like morphine, or maybe moleskins for blisters? I don't know, but thats whats in my civilian first aid kit
Well... I don't have morphine.

It has 2 gauze packs plus two quik clot gauze packs we were given. It has 2 H-bandages, 2 tourniquets, band aids, water purification tablets, burn gel dressings, quik clot, 2 triangle bandages, first aid antibiotic ointment, tape, and betadine.
Yep, quite a lot of **** which is why i thought it was kind of silly that all we have in game is some 1960s bandage dressing.
