Dogsbody Posted March 30, 2019 Share #1 Posted March 30, 2019 ........and by that I am referring to the sewing kits that were either issued or PX-store bought, of course . I really like the personal stuff that GI's carried with them and these little items may not seem (no pun intended this time) that interesting at first but they were still essential. Oh, and I do know how to sew on a patch or replace a button, by the way. So here are the ones I managed to collect so far. Feel free to add your housewives at any time.

BILL THE PATCH Posted March 30, 2019 Share #3 Posted March 30, 2019 Here are two I have, I don't think contents are original. Most likely used by a women after war. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
103OVI Posted March 30, 2019 Share #4 Posted March 30, 2019 Mine is definitely worse for wear, but still intact. The drawstring is gone, as are most of the contents, but at least it still has rusty scissors and needles. I think the picture could give you tetanus just by looking at it.

mikie Posted March 31, 2019 Share #8 Posted March 31, 2019 Well here's another thing I'll need to look to add to the collection. Rene, I won't needle you about sewing ability. My Grandpa Frank was a tailor but a button or patch is about all I can manage. Mikie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
