To add to my Brother's TQ advice, the 2-is-1 and 1-is-none adage applies.
My guys carry their TQ's mounted on the front of their armor somewhere accessible easily with both hands. If they are CAT's they should have the velcro tabbed as well. They should not be in their wrapper either...
As for the BOK itself, I really dont care where they mount it as long as its marked. Mandating the placement of the BOK isnt much different than my Bravo mandating where I place my mags or frags... Accessibility of your BOK has to be tempered with accessibility of the other items you have to carry: Mags, Frags, Radio, etc...
I utilize a Tactical Tailor H1 GP pouch mounted on 1" flat nylon (with fastex buckle) webbing and wear it similar to a fannypack. I can move it around as need be and can get to it easily. I can also wear it in the event I am not wearing armor (low pro) without having multiple BOK's in different configurations. It contains a 28fr NPA, 2-(14ga) caths, 2-Halo chest seals, 3-H&H gauze, 2-Ace wrap, Celox, 2-safety pins, and 2-mosquito forceps...my TQ's are on my vest and one on my rifle (parachutist retention banded to the buttstock.
