ABSTRACT:
A survival kit apparatus is set forth wherein the same provides for a container formed with a pivotally mounted lid securable about a forward face of the container. The kit includes a selectively illuminated compass formed within the lid and a secondary storage container formed through the lid containing food rations and cutlery therein. The interior of the container includes a spool of flexible tether line formed with axially extending axles from the spool. A valved pressurized helium container has secured thereto an inflatable signal balloon and a flashlight removably positioned within a padded tubular support holder removably secured within the container along a forwardmost wall thereof. A first end of the support hose is provided with diametrically opposed finger access slots at one end of the support holder for removal of the flashlight from within the support holder, and the second end of the support holder includes a second diametrically opposed pair of finger access openings further including latch members pivotally mounted overlying the finger access slots. Removal of the helium container from within the tubular support holder enables positionment of the spool of tether line within the support holder and secures the spool within the second end of the support holder by securing the extending axles of the spool by said pivoted latch members.
