    WW2 US Army Jungle First Aid Pouch

    I found this pouch among some web gear that I had put away years ago. After doing
    some research, I found out it is a WW2 Army Jungle First Aid pouch and dated 1945.

    Anyone have any additional information on this pouch ?Attachment 114513Attachment 114514Attachment 114515

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I have two, one in the new ALICE carrier with plastic box that I think came from my first trip to Coronado in '74 and the other cotton older one I can't remember. Maybe from Ft Wainwright AK in '75. Bear might know about that one. Both have a few original and some newer stuff. the ALICE had a metal container of chapstick I think that had gone to dust. I haven't opened in these in likely 30 years conservatively guessing...

    The cotton case is marked "Aviator Camouflage". The pill bottle is iodine pills seal in with wax. Green rubber egg is a snake bite kit, some of you guys remember...
    Regards, Jim
