First aid kit for a BOB should be basic and minimal to meet dire medical emergencies, not cover every circumstance.

A large ruck is more of an INCH bag rather than BOB
This is why I love the ILBE/FILBE pack system. It comes with a main pack, assault pack, camelbak, 2 sustainment pouches, 2 more camelbak bladder holders and finally an assault/radio pouch.

If your just doing a 3day (72hr) bag, just use the assault pack.

If the S has REALLY hit the fan, then combine all as an INCH bag.
