ETO Soldiers Perscription & Glasses "Do You See or Do You Nat See"

[manayunkman]

These are supposed to be Army issue with the behind the ear grips.

 

And the issue prescription is with them.

 

I really don't know much about these so any comments are appreciated.

Look like Radar O'Rielly's glasses from MASH.

Other than my cases being olive green they look the same as my pairs. Does the perscription have anything on indicating they are issue. Mine has the optometrists rank with his signature.

Nice specs! Can you see markings on the bridge? For instance can you see AO ful-vue stamped on there? AO stands for American Optical and ful-vue is a trademark. If so your specs are probably army issue.

They are marked correctly AO Ful-view.

Nice! I like how the temple tips wrap around under the ears like aviators

They look like normal WWII GI glasses to me. Nice glasses. With the notation ETOUSAMD (European Theater of Operations US Army Medical Department) Form No.- 315 on the prescription card they were issued overseas.

 

It's nice to find them with the prescription card.

Thanks for the information and comments.

 

This was part of a grouping of an ETO soldier.
