LBT-1562A Medical Air Force (PJ) Jumpable Backpack
The London Bridge Tactical Field Care Pack was designed originally in 1995 for the U.S. Air Force's elite Pararescue Jumpers (PJs). This pack allows the PJ to conduct airborne operations with all necessary medical supplies and with limited advanced life support (ALS) supplies.
The main compartment of the pack itself has one large (9" x 13" x 2") zippered compartment with a smaller mesh pocket. There are also six mesh pockets, with elastic draws, for storing bandages, dressings, etc.
A large mesh compartment on the back allows the medic to carry a set of MAST (military anti-shock trousers). Main compartment zipper security is provided through the use of six cinch straps with side-release buckles.
Also included are three cinch straps for securing bulky items. The Parachute harness attachment straps can be easily stowed in small side pockets when not needed. There is also a pocket along the inside of the pack to provide for using a hydration bladder. The pack is constructed using 1000 denier Dupont© Cordura© nylon.
I believe is a very early London Bridge Trading Medic Backpack. The pack has LBT's older Silver Label (picture 3) and the Fastex clips are dated 1995.
The pack has 2 external zippered pockets, a large main compartment with several mesh pockets and small zippered compartment, a zippered mesh back panel, padded shoulder straps, vinyl identification window, multiple drain grommets, drag handle, and a hydration bladder compartment and tube outlet.
There is a hole in the top external pocket (picture 1) and the pack is missing 2 male Fastex clips (pictures 2 and 7).
Old School London Bridge LBT-1562A Air Force PJ Jumpable Medical Backpack. Color is the old Sand Tan. This is a very old and rare piece, it is mentioned all the way back in the 1994 LBT Catalog. The tag is an old green text label variant and has the later style website and phone number, meaning this item is probably from the early 2000's. See pictures for more information.This pack was brought in by a local SEAL and is in Excellent condition. Really have not seen one better outside of new. The only thing that makes this not brand new is a single ink stain on the inside of the pack, on the mesh of one of the zippered pouches. This can be seen clearly in the pictures. It is only on the mesh and did not damage anything other then cosmetically. See the pictures for best details. Great piece of old school kit!
