Indeed.
I wear a belt with holes in it the entire length so I can use it as an expedient tourniquet God forbid.
Learned that trick back in the 70's when a biker got broadsided by a car which took his leg off above the knee. He was wearing a belt like that and I used it to stop the bleeding. (And even then he was more worried about his bike than missing a leg.)

ETA: and tampons are great to stick into bullet holes. Don't ask how I know that...
