I'm thinking old military field tourniquet.

Exactly!

It is a tourniquet and #15 scalpel blade. But...it is probably from one of those old snake bite kits that looked like a big rubber capsule.

Probably the worse snake bite kit ever developed. Tourniquet and a scapel mixed with snake venom = bad things...real bad.

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."
