'Warrior Wear'

Published December 27, 2007 2:11 PM by Stephen Cornell

CNN.com is reporting that an Army physician has helped create military and law enforcement clothing with built-in tourniquets.

The system being tested for use in military uniforms, called Warrior Wear, has eight tourniquets -- two in each sleeve and pant leg.

"No matter how good the tourniquet is, if you can't get it on the person at the right time, it doesn't work," said Rose, who does tactical medicine consultation and medical work overseas.
