  1. #1

    Default First Aid Kit

    Where would a first aid kit be stowed on the M715?

    my truck had a first aid kit mounted behind the passenger seat when we got it from the military to build it as a fire truck. we mounted a larger J&J one there, and when I restored the truck, I left it there and mounted the decon canister below it. since it was a "field mod"

    I have a first aid kit next to each seat on the floor. Maybe not correct, but it looks good there in my opinion.

    Typically anywhere the first aid kit can be readily accessible and still not be in the way of normal / combat vehicle operations.

    Makes good sense.
    That leads to another question.
    If it would have been stowed anywhere other that the glove box, a field mod would require a mounting bracket.

    What box are You going to use?

    Metal and Era correct? WWII version here:


    I'm using the newer plastic ones, but... function was a factor and time.

    Nice... and Yep.. that requires a bracket... to be "correct"
    I have snakes and bobcats and wild boar here, ( scorpions, red wasps and black widows, brown recluses too ) I opted for 2" velcro on the bottom.. but I'm not taking the truck to any shows and no points will be deducted..
