The Talon II is a compact folding litter for evacuating battlefield casualties – more compact than the 90C model included in the Warrior Aid and Litter Kit. There are locking hinges, straps to secure the casualty and attaching points to secure the litter within vehicles. It can hold up to 550kg and measures 205x57x15cm extended / 52x18x15cm folded.
Travel John Urinal Bag
This tough plastic bag is useful when you’re in an observation post and don’t want to either sit in your own effluent or leave any signs that you’ve been there. Seals easily.
Water Jel Fire Blanket
Measuring 91x76cm, this fire blanket is soaked in Water Jel (the same substance in the burn kit) to allow you to cool burn wounds as well as keep them clean. It stows in a plastic tub with a clip-lock lid.

BASIC ROLEPLAYING Game Information:
Medical Equipment and Combat First Aid
The use of First Aid skill is set out on page 58 of the rulebook;
Medicine skill is on page 69 of the rulebook.
The items in this section represent a small selection of kit that may be used particularly in responding to combat injuries. In certain circumstances, such as where characters may need to provide care to someone with a specific condition, more specialised equipment will be required.
The items presented here in the main pertain to the use of First Aid skill. They particularly relate to initial treatment of injuries, particularly those sustained in combat or the tactical environment. As such, they:
Provide positive modifiers to your character when attempting First Aid skill rolls;
Provide such modifiers in response to specific circumstances; or
Enable your character to do certain things (such as moving a casualty using a litter).
In certain circumstances, the Gamemaster may consider it appropriate to allow benefits for characters using these items in conjunction with Medicine skill rolls. For example, the items within the Squad Combat Casualty Response Kit will allow diagnosis and long term treatment of injuries.

Maintaining communication with others is a critical element of teamwork. The full pace of change in technology is most visible here, with a complete revolution in the gear that you carry.
This chapter gives you not only a full range of military and civilian electronic communication equipment, but also surveillance and counter-surveillance equipment and other electronic gear. It also details non-electronic kit for navigation and signalling to sit alongside their electronic counterparts.
