I think you can tell what most things are except maybe: 
1. Sunscreen (not used) 
5. I don't remember 
7. Immodium (not used, crumbled to dust) 
8. Sample pack of neosporin (I refilled it now and then using a   
toothpick) 
9. Ibuprofen 
10. Glasses (sucks to be old) 
11. Sewing needle inside a pencil led container (dental floss is my   
thread, I did use this) 
13. Vicodin (enough to get out, never used) 
14. Firestarter kit (never used) 
15. Electronics and a dry-bag to put my camera in during creek fords   
(used) 

For first aid, I really only ever used tape and gauze (sticks better   
than bandaids) and neosporin. Shirt and bandanas could have been used   
for bleeding.
