What It Is
An IFAK is only as useful as its contents. As components are used, expire, or are consumed in training, maintaining a fully stocked kit requires a reliable resupply process. The RAMPART MARCH IFAK Resupply Kit provides an individual-level IFAK's core contents in a single standardized package, designed for rapid integration into any MOLLE-compatible IFAK pouch and organized around the MARCH protocol used in TCCC-based care.
The kit's structure follows MARCH. Massive Hemorrhage is addressed with the TMT tourniquet, ChitoGauze XR PRO (an extended-duration chitosan hemostatic gauze), compressed TACgauze, Battle Bandage, and Battle Wrap. Airway is covered by a pre-lubricated 28Fr NPA. Respiration is covered by the Russell vented chest seal and a DART needle-decompression component. All items are vacuum-sealed in lightweight, rugged packaging built to withstand harsh conditions and MOLLE-pouch compression.
The ChitoGauze XR PRO is an extended-release formulation providing sustained hemostatic action versus standard ChitoGauze — relevant where extraction time may be prolonged. The Russell vented chest seal uses a venting mechanism intended to manage tension pneumothorax without allowing air re-entry, a clinically meaningful difference from non-vented occlusive seals.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the RAMPART MARCH IFAK Resupply Kit and a generic IFAK resupply?
A: The RAMPART MARCH IFAK Resupply Kit is organized according to the MARCH protocol using the RAMPART color-coded system, ensuring each component is instantly identifiable under stress. It includes premium hemostatic gauze (ChitoGauze XR PRO), a Russell Vented Chest Seal, a DART needle decompression device, and a pre-lubricated NPA — a complete MARCH intervention set that generic resupply packages typically omit. The vacuum-sealed packaging and MOLLE compatibility further distinguish it for operational use.
Q: Can the RAMPART MARCH IFAK Resupply Kit be used to stock IFAKs for training exercises?
A: Yes. The kit is well-suited for training resupply because it provides all MARCH protocol components in a single standardized package. This consistency ensures every trainee IFAK contains the same items, simplifying skills verification and After-Action Reviews. The individual vacuum-sealed components can also be removed and re-staged for scenario-based training rotations.
Q: Is the TMT tourniquet in this kit CoTCCC-recommended?
A: The Tactical Mechanical Tourniquet (TMT) is manufactured by Safeguard Medical and is a windlass-based tourniquet. For current CoTCCC recommendation status and applicability to specific operational standards, consult the CoTCCC guidelines directly or contact Safeguard Medical or MED-TAC International.
Q: What MOLLE pouches are compatible with this resupply kit?
A: The RAMPART MARCH IFAK Resupply Kit is designed to integrate into standard MOLLE-compatible IFAK pouches. The vacuum-sealed flat packaging of individual components is optimized for compact storage within typical individual-level IFAK configurations. Specific pouch compatibility depends on pouch interior dimensions; the kit is designed to fit the RAMPART-branded IFAK pouch but is compatible with most military-standard IFAK pouches with sufficient volume.
