Jump Bag

Watch out everyone, I just received a new jump bag!

The other day at the rescue squad we were all given duffle bags. I already have one duffle bag for my clothes so I decided to turn it into a jump bag for myself to keep with me. The duffle bag is really nice, its dimensions are 24" x 12" x 15" which gives me a whopping 4320 cubic inches. It also comes with a shoulder strap for those extra heavy loads and it has reflective stripes on the side of it. There are also pockets on the sides which allow me to categorize some of my supplies (such as diagnostic equipment, wound care, personal protective equipment, etc.).

I'm thinking about making some modifications to the bag however. Here's my list of things to be done to it:

-Reinforce the bottom of the bag; the bag's underside is kind of flimsy and I really want it to hold some form when I start to put things inside of it, I also want the bottom reinforced so it won't get torn up.
-Internal frame- I was thinking about adding some kind of internal frame like they put on hiking backpacks so that the jump bag will hold more of a form.
-Cargo netting- I'm going to add some cargo netting on the inside of the main section of the bag so that I can place certain things (such as non-rebreather masks, supply tubing, and extra supplies) into more categorized areas and just so that the bag is all-around more organized (read, I don't want the jump bag exploding when I open it).
-More reflective strips on the side- I think the bag needs more reflective strips on the side...I don't like the idea of getting hit by a car while helping someone on the side of the road.

I've also started stocking up the kit. I'll post more about that later. So what do you guys think? What suggestions do you have for a jump bag?

Stay safe everyone,
