Corrected entry: When Gunny cuts through the back seat of the FBI cruiser and pulls out the medic bag he grabs the quick clot and uses it. He has been in the mountains for 36 months as stated on screen so how did he know about quick clot and how to use it. I am a medic in the military and we have just recently (within the last 6 months) been trained on and issued quick clot. Quick clot is very dangerous if not used properly and CAN do more harm than good.

Correction: Apparently he just got lucky. He was really out of options and did not have very much choice either use the quick clot that he found (the name describes it enough for anybody to know what its for) or bleed to death. He made a snap decision and it ended up paying off and being correct. Also he was using the internet at his cabin on his laptop. Who is to say he did not research the quick clot on military pages while surfing since he is into stuff like that.

If he really did research the quick clot on military pages while surfing, then he would know that you don't quick clot on anything other than the arms, or legs.
He would also know that you don't open quick clot with your mouth. If even a small amount of it gets in your mouth it will cause a very large amount of pain, and a massive case of cotton mouth.
