We are committed to those we serve to deliver innovative gear with superior quality. Blue Force Gear is not satisfied with making the same thing as everyone else - merely changing the color or style. We design by a code of advancement - if we can’t make something better than what is currently available, we don’t make it. By continually innovating, our products will always be different. We are proud to have pioneered technological innovations that have revolutionized load carriage and weapon carrying establishing the world’s standard in weapon slings and the world’s lightest, MOLLE compatible load carriage. Of course we are not stopping there. We are continually improving our gear lineup and looking for more ways to improve the tactical gear industry and ultimately the warriors here at home and worldwide. Blue Force Gear is committed To American Manufacturing. All Of Our Gear Is Made Right Here In The US With American Materials. -1- -2- Technologies Vickers Sling™ The Vickers Sling™ has become the World’s Standard in Weapon Slings™. Our patented quick adjust technology bridges the gap between fighting and carrying weapons, allowing the user to instantly shoulder and fire a weapon without removing the sling. ULTRAcomp™ ULTRAcomp™ is our proprietary high performance laminate custom built to Blue Force Gear’s standards. It enables revolutionary applications such as our Helium Whisper® Attachment System, MOLLEminus™, and Ten-Speed® technology. MOLLEminus™ MOLLEminus™ created the world’s thinnest and lightest MOLLE compatible load carriage using slots and holes laser cut out of our state of the art ULTRAcomp™ laminate. Helium Whisper® Helium Whisper® is Blue Force Gear’s patented fully MOLLE compatible attachment system. Instead of sewn webbing straps, the attachment system is created from a single piece of laser cut ULTRAComp™, saving up to 60% of the weight of similar pouches. Ten-Speed® Ten-Speed® pouches use our military grade elastic combined with Helium Whisper® to create multi-use pouches that are simple to use, weigh little, and lay flat when not in use. -3- Images from the Department of Defense -4- Vickers Combat Applications Sling™ The Patented Vickers Combat Applications Sling™ has revolutionized the way we carry automatic rifles.

TEAR, lbs. - 22 - Plateminus™ Plateminus™ V2 PLATEminus™ is the MOLLEminus™ take on the plate carrier – utilizing one piece of hydrophobic ULTRAcomp™ rather than sewn layers of nylon as a molle platform. plateminus™ is the lightest, thinnest fully molle compatible plate carrier with adjustable shoulder straps – perfect for low profile work. The PLATEminus™ plate pockets are constructed from color matched cordura® for maximum signature reduction. Two fastex buckles enable plateminus™ to be put on or removed in seconds. PLATEminus™ V2 is the built with the same fully molle compatible molleminus platform as the original PLATEminus™. the plate 2 provides the users with built in 6”x6” side plate pockets and a cumberbund. this provides fully modular load carriage capability but significantly reduces weight and bulk over traditional armor carriers. PLATEminus™ V2 is built to hold sapi / esapi armored plates and has fully enclosed plate pockets which protect the plates. This provides maximum signature management by eliminating back plates or the need for additional “socks”.

Sorry I couldn’t get this email off last week, but I got caught up with work. I was the Chief Scout for 3rd Bn, 4th MARs on their 2011 deployment to the Upper Gereshk Valley, Afghanistan. My Sniper team took two casualties while on that deployment. It was because of your gear that the two of us are still alive. Before we left on the deployment every member of the battalion was given Medium Trauma Kit and a Vickers Combat Application Sling. Everyone was excited at how nice and effective the Trauma Kits were compared to anything we had seen before. No one really knew just how many lives such a simple piece of gear would end up saving. We soon started to find out once we got to Afghanistan. The first firefight that my team got into our Corpsman got shot in the left forearm within the first enemy volley. Even with a gunshot wound to his arm he was still able to reach his Blue Force Gear Trauma Kit and pull it out. By the time the next closest team member got to the casualty he already had a pressure dressing ready to apply to the wound. Then once the casualty was treated and ready to move it was very easy to recover the remainder of his medical supplies within seconds and move out of the area to a landing zone. This was only possible because of the great design of the Blue Force Gear Trauma Kit. It wasn’t long until I got to experience the effectiveness of the Blue Force Gear Trauma Kit and the Vickers Combat Application Sling. On June 21, 2011 my Sniper team was tasked with reconnoitering a compound in order to set up a hide site. My team left in the early evening to clear this compound. It didn’t take us long to get there and begin the clearing. Once the compound was deemed “clear” myself and three others entered to do a sketch of the compound and determine how we wanted to set up the hide later that night. After everything was completed I was talking to the engineer who cleared it and an EOD Marine. Once we had finished our short conversation we all turned to walk away. I had barely turned when I heard and felt a large explosion right behind me which propelled me through the air 10 ft from where I was standing. Before I even hit the ground I knew what had happened, one of us had triggered an Improvised Explosive Device. Once I landed I could feel intense pain in my left arm and I knew that I needed a tourniquet as well as some pressure dressings. I reached down with my uninjured arm and pulled out my Blue Force Gear Trauma Kit placing it on my chest. I then unclipped my M4 which was held in place by a Vickers Combat Application Sling. After that I pulled the tourniquet off of my Trauma Kit and waited for the closest team member to get to me and render aid. Within just a few seconds of the dust settling other team members began rendering aid to the three wounded, myself being one of the three. It was because of the extremely effective Blue Force Gear Trauma Kits that all three individuals were able to be saved and I’m able to be typing this email to you. I’m positive if it hadn’t been for the Blue Force Gear Trauma Kits that we had on that day there would have been a much different result. The amount of effort and speed you can employ the Blue Force Gear Trauma Kit is unprecedented and is truly saving the lives of service members on the battlefield. The Vickers Combat Application Sling also held all three of our rifles in place even after being launched through the air by the Improvised Explosive Device. Just to give you an idea of the force that the Vickers Combat Application Sling withstood, before I got blown up I had a nomex glove, a watch, and my long sleeve Frog top on, when I hit the ground my left arm was bare. The glove, watch, and sleeve that were there seconds before now were nowhere to be seen, but what was still there was my M4 held in place by my Vickers Combat Application Sling. After I was medevaced to Camp Bastion, AFG my sling and trauma kit were burned because they had blood all over them. I am writing this email to say thank you for making such a great piece of gear. I probably would have bled out if it hadn’t been for your gear and how effective it is. Thanks again. Sgt. Joshua D.

Blue Force Gear was the obvious choice for our OEM pouch manufacturer because they are the pioneers and industry leaders in ultra light-weight soft-goods. We came to Blue Force Gear with a great pouch design of our own; they helped us make it even better. Their design input made the pouch more functional while simultaneously lowering our unit cost. The quality of work product BFG delivers is excellent; their consistency is remarkable. They have worked closely with us to meet time-critical deliveries for large contracts, and their staff at all levels have been friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive. -CLEER Medical - 39 - - 40 - Causes Warranty/Ip Blue Force Gear believes in giving back and promoting the greater good.
