Customer photo review of Denying Death Morale Patch--Best Seller!

So, my nephew who is an electrician had a horrible accident on a job site. He was electrocuted with 20,000 volts when a transformer sucked him in and blew up. His ex-marine buddy has been by his side from the first day he was flown to a burn center. Somehow, someway, his buddy had miss placed this patch, and my nephew found it in a box of books that was brought up to him. His marine buddy asked, “where did you find that? I haven’t seen it in years?!” My nephew told him how he found it, and that he wanted to give it to his apprentice that saved his life by performing CPR until EMS got there. His buddy had to step out, and take a moment to compose himself. When he came back in the room he looked at my nephew and said, “I really think you need to give him this patch.” Well, I only had a description of it, but managed to find it from your site. So, not only does my nephew get to give this patch to the man that saved his life, but his best friend that has been by his side every day, the ex marine, will also have his patch back. Thank you so much. This means the world to us.

All around a great shop. The ordering experience was seamless (Apple Pay checkout), shipping was fast. And the postcard of the same patch I bought from the owner of the company was a really nice touch. Keep it up Chris! Hopefully I can continue to support this wonderful company. The patch was exactly, if not better than expected. Wonderful quality!

Customer photo review of The 3-pack Quick Reference Guide Set! -- Updated in 2025!

Haven’t had these for long, but they are the perfect size and well-crafted to stay on my second-line gear. They provide necessary information rapidly, and it’s something I’ve recommended to my CLS troops. If you have a troop or a buddy, these are a great stocking stuffer or Christmas gift for any medic/corpsman. I combine this as a reference with my QB sleeve, and troop/unit data book to make sure we’re managing our doses correctly and rapidly. 10/10, mandatory for a medical sergeant. Highly recommended for medics.

After years of childhood dog, I became a MWD in 1981. Today, I still train working dogs. Your K9 Care guide is going into my plate carrier and as soon as I can order more, they are going to my guys. 👍🏻🇺🇸

Store owner replied: We appreciate it Matthew! As a multiple time customer, hit us up before you place another order and we'll make sure you get a discount!

Great customer service! The post office misplaced the package after it was dropped off and there was a delay in my delivery. After I contacted Ready Warrior, they drove down to the post office, worked with the employees there to find it, and had it in its way within a day of me contacting them. Will definitely order from them again.

Excellent quality, love the updated reference book, I'm a SOF Medic and having that book tucked inside my kit definitely makes for a good reference if I brain fart something I haven't done in forever, or some obscure calculation.
