Bluehawk Posted January 14, 2012 Share #1 Posted January 14, 2012 A fellow posted elsewhere the following explanation for the Johnson & Johnson metal box pictured here below: "this is what my Grandmas brothers effects was sent back in from WW1 ,I guess they had to use something." I sorta doubt it, but it does raise in my curiosity what kinds of containers might personal effects HAVE been sent home in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wharfmaster Posted February 14, 2012 Share #2 Posted February 14, 2012 During WW1, personal effects of the fallen were sent to the NOK in a small canvas drawstring bag. Regards, The Wharfmaster In Peace and War. US Merchant Marine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
