Doctrine // the why
MissionField-treat life threats, then sustain medical capability for 14 days across cuts, sprains, GI illness, infection, blisters, allergic reaction, dental, and exposure. The Master is the resupply kit for the smaller M9b Deployable that rotates daily between the Bang Bang and the LoDrag II. Master stays at camp inside the Atlas; the Deployable goes to the field. Trauma items live at the top of the pouch for fast access. Medications live in a labeled inner zip with expiration tracking on this page.
