What do you carry EDC in regards to survival and emergency preparedness?

For me it will slightly change from day to day depending upon whether I'm on-duty or off and of course the weather.

On-duty I'll have my duty belt which has;

MTM (mouth-to-mouth) ventilator
911 tool (like an inward curved knife)
Streamlight flashlight
Taser w/extra cartridge
Cuffs
Radio
O.C. spray
If I'm wearing my side arm it is a Glock 21 or I'll have my personal Glock 23.
Cell phone
In my work bag;
Chap stick
Dental floss
Tooth brush & paste
Spare battery for Streamlight
Cambridge Concord KJV Bible (most important to me)
Football gloves (for if I'm going hands-on and I have time to put them on)
Food & at least two quarts of water w/minerals.

I also carry my Swiss Army Tinker pocket knife.

Off-duty;

Swiss Army Tinker pocket knife
Spyderco Endura clip knife w/full serrations
2 inch firesteel in wallet
Dive watch with attached wrist compass (I usually wear a cheapo watch at work in case I have to go hands-on).
Glock 23
If I have my fanny pack;
Small tinder box w/cotton + vasaline and second 2 inch firesteel
Small LED flashlight
Small key chain LED flashlight attached to pack
Cell phone
Keys w/kubaton
And in Florida I usually have a drink (especially in summer) and some trail mix (I eat something every 2-3 hours since I bodybuild)

How about you guys?

Two thousand years ago wise men sought Christ, wise men still do.

Techniques are situational, principles are universal.

Fast as the wind, quiet as the forest, aggressive as fire, and immovable as a mountain.

He who gets there first with the most...wins!

Minimal force may not be minimum force!

We don't rise to the occasion...we sink to the level of our training.

One of my many knives
Glock 19
Wallet
Paracord bracelet
watch
Sunglasses

On a BoyScout event
all of they above
and my backpack full of goodies

Excuses are like armpits, everyone has a couple and they stink.

I've added that whistle to my fanny pack that we got at Harbor Freight. Cody Lundin recommends one for all kits and I agree with his reasoning behind the suggestion.

My new EDC bag, a UTG Tactical Messenger Bag:



Ordered it off Ebay for $29. There was a small issue with the shoulder strap buckle not securing properly so they gave me a choice of keeping the bag and a partial refund ($10) or return the bag for a full refund. I choose the partial and think it will be an easy fix. So this bag was a total of $19! Very good deal.

I also bought this:



Which fits inside and secures a firearm. YT has a ton of videos on the bag.
