    Description

    This is an auction... for a hard to find great display piece US Army Air corps 1944-45  Marked on lid "Packet, First Aid Individual  Aircrew Member (Instructions inside) Stock Number 9714000" Aluminum Box (no contents). Measures 5.5" X  4"  X 1 3/8" original contents are listed inside the lid. Great display piece or repurpose as a neet jewelry or militaria keepsake container.
    NOTE This kit was introduced late in WW2 and only gradually issued to each individual aircrew member for his original needs. It was first intended for fighter pilots following the removal of the Kit, First Aid, Aeronautic (Medical Item No. 9776500) from fighter aircraft, as the latter was considered too bulky for the cramped cockpit. Moreover, its compact size allowed it to be easily stashed away in the pilot’s clothing or stored with his personal effects.
    This box was  manufactured and supplied by
    W. & K. Mfg. Co., New York, N.Y
    . A decal (olive drab background, red cross, list of contents & use) is fixed inside the cover.
