Building a new EDC for the wife

[Mortblanc]

First thing I think of is if she has a mind set to use the contents, and why she needs it. And if she does need it why is she not already carrying it?

There are women that carry a purse as a home away from home, and others want to slip some folding money and their ID in their pocket and go.

My late wife was a working mother of two boys. The entire family could live on the contents of her purse for 72 hours and I am sure she could have done surgery with the contents of the FAK she had in there!

On top of that she got her concealed carry permit 6 months before I did and had a .357 revolver somewhere in the depths of that honking big purse she carried.

I think she always considered me putting a "get home bag" in her car a sort of insult to her capabilities and the contents of that purse.
