This discussion began as a query about how many carry a tourniquet during their daily lives in a civilian environment, and quickly went to the potential likelihood of a need for those tourniquets.
"Battlefields" were not included, but came later.
Of course, in wartime combat environment, there is a completely different situation. The potential for all sorts of serious injuries is greatly increased.
I would never advise anyone to enter military combat without the best equipment available, BUT that is a different situation from our daily peacetime lives.
Consider the potential need for milspec heavy body armor in our daily lives?
