Correct, the examples he provided are for a first aid kit, not a trauma kit.
My first aid kit IS my trauma kit.

I carry an small bottle of 100 proof - the kind they have on airplanes - for infection or pain, small tube of super glue to seal cuts deep enough for stitches, and narrow strips of duct tape for bumps and scrapes. Other than that, I tell my children to tough it out.

Written by a DFW area paramedic and Marine Corps veteran, the article contains good advice on do it yourself first aid kits. I like that he supplied links to every piece of his example kit.
