Kerry Davis is the founder and owner of the fast-growing combat medical supply company Dark Angel Medical. To know more about Dark Angel Medical, we believe you need to know more about Kerry Davis.

Kerry, started his military career as field medic in the US Air Force. He was given special duty assignment to go to and train at Pope AFB/Ft. Bragg where he not only went through jump school, but learned much of what he does now from the small units he worked with. With Kerry’s growing love for competitive shooting, he soon was able to combine the two things he loved most: shooting and medicine. Kerry became an instructor at Officer Training School, teaching courses like Medical Readiness Indoctrination. He also taught CPR, PALS, ACLS and Self-Aid/Buddy Care, as well as assisting the local paramedic school with pharmacology and cardiology instruction as an adjunct. Kerry did all of this while also working as a civilian paramedic and taking classes towards his nursing degree. As his active duty career came to an end, Kerry joined the reserves, where he had more time to study and complete his degree.

After military life, Kerry worked for a number of well-known companies in the industry. While working as a RN in the ER and ICU, Kerry ran into many instances where the knowledge of basic life saving skills would have saved lives. For this reason, he started working on a curriculum for a medical class. Without a platform to launch from, he brought the concept to Magpul Dynamics, who referred him to Chris Costa. He proceeded to take a couple of classes with Costa, and then began to teach an impromptu GSW class. Kerry worked with Magpul for a time as the Director of Medical Training, and was picked up by the Sig Sauer Academy. It is with SIG that he has been on the road teaching “Bullets and Bandages”, as well as other classes with them since this past fall.

“Our goal is to put out a good product for the good guys. If I teach 50,000 people and only 1 of them use the kit or info to save a life, then it is 100% worth it. Folks just don’t realize that just because the gunfight is over, the fight for your life might just be starting and that’s where having the proper training, mindset and a simple, yet effective, kit come into play.”
-Kerry Davis

If Kerry’s credentials alone don’t speak for themselves about what Dark Angel Medical has set out to do, then perhaps you should look at the company and their product.

D.A.R.K. (Direct Action Response Kit)

The adopted motto of Dark Angel Medical seems pretty self explanatory: “Simplicity Under Stress“. Their sole product the D.A.R.K. (Direct Action Response Kit) is currently in use by many active duty military personnel and also industry professionals. The kit is currently endorsed by Chris Costa of Costa Ludus and can be purchased on his site, www.costaludus.com. The kit promises to include everything you need and nothing you don’t. Although simplicity is the key word when describing the kit, it still looks robust enough to handle many important medical tasks.
