NSN : 6545-01-532-3674
MES CLS 2005 (Medical Equipment Set, Combat Lifesaver)
(CLS Bag, Complete) (August 05, 2005)



As a result of advances in trauma management and feedback from users in the field, the Army updated the combat lifesaver bag in 2005. Due to the number and type of changes made to the components, the CLS MES now has a new NSN 6545-01-532-3674 for the assembly.

The so-called "M-3 Combat Lifesavers Bag" is the CLS MES with National Stock Number (NSN) 6545-01-254-9551 for the fully assembled kit, or NSN 6545-00-512-9870 for the carrying bag alone. The nomenclature for the bag is "Case #3" and the size is 10 x 4-1/2 x 18 inches.

Due to cost issues, the proposed bag in the assemblage 6545-01-537-0686, BAG, TC3, COMBAT CASUALTY CARE will not be fielded with the assemblage. The components will continue to be issued in the old bag,6545-00-912-9870, CASE #3 10X4-1/2X18IN. Hextend will remain a component of the CLS assemblage. This policy has been coordinated with the Office of the Surgeon General. That does not, of course, negate the unit surgeons authority to replace that fluid with a crystalloid as he deems necessary with regard to his/her CLS providers and the mission. USAMMA/DSCP will not build multiple CLS assemblages with different intravenous fluids. That substitution can be done at the local level. DSCP is filling orders for the CLS bag with the new components.


Mission and Capabilities:

a. Mission. This set contains medical supplies to provide immediate life saving care to battlefield casualties.

b. Capabilities. The combat lifesaver is a non-medical Soldier who is trained to provide critical, lifesaving care to wounded Soldiers in a tactical environment as a secondary mission. The recommended allocation of Combat Lifesavers is one per vehicle, and/or one per squad. The MES contains the consumable material to provide initial treatment for one severely wounded casualty. The set contains the medical material required for general and intermediate lifesaving first aid. It is designed to provide initial treatment to a wide range of battle injuries. The set provides material to initiate treatment for burn injuries, provide adjunct airway management, control hemorrhage, initiate fluid replacement for traumatic blood loss, and splint extremity injuries.

c. New Capability. The ability to control bleeding has been improved with the addition of three new components to the set; the Tourniquet, Combat Application, One-Handed, NSN 6515-01-521-7976; the Bandage Kit Elastic (Emergency Trauma Dressing), NSN 6510-01-492-2275; and the Bandage Hemorrhage Control, 4x4 sterile Chitosan Dressing, NSN 6510-01-502-6938. The capability of decompressing a tension pneumothorax has been added to the MES with the addition of the 14 Gauge 2.5” Catheter and Needle, NSN 6515-01-467-1335.

M5 Medic Bag


This rectangular canvas rucksack contains are large internal space for storing various assorted medical equipment. It has several inner pockets and ties to keep a M5 Aid bag secure

The M5 bag (the one here is a 1980's example) contained all the medical supplies a platoon would need. This example contains the M5 bag with assorted contents including the emergency surgical instrument set. The remainder is filled with bandages of various sizes. The long external pocket would have contained an emergency splint, and the two short ones were for other medical equpment that could be accessed easily. Usually the medic carried extra canteens attached to the sides of this pack.
