rambob Posted May 2, 2009 Author Share #28 Posted May 2, 2009 Finally, after many months here is the clear pouch again, but with the protective cardboard around the tourniquet and the components better positioned.

Youngin Posted November 26, 2011 Share #29 Posted November 26, 2011 Parachutist First Aid Kit Varient: Continuous "Zig-Zag stitching" (like the Holland examples) but with "serifs" on the font (like the Normandy examples). Has anyone ever seen one like this? Bob Link to post Share on other sites
dmar836 Posted February 19, 2012 Share #30 Posted February 19, 2012 Old topic but needs to be discussed occasionally. I have recently stumbled upon two different packets - both unopened and will remain that way. Think they are originals? Dave Link to post Share on other sites
piperl401 Posted May 27, 2016 Share #31 Posted May 27, 2016 I have a USGI first aid kit unopened and want to put some pictures on here. Can someone give me a hint on how to get them here. I have an iPad. The kit is a bring back from WWII along with the complete A3 that it. Was tied to. Link to post Share on other sites
piperl401 Posted June 14, 2016 Share #32 Posted June 14, 2016 I have a 100% original parachute first aid kit. It has never been opened. it has the 4 straps to hold it on. I guess it is somehow heat sealed as it has lasted all these years since WWII without as much as a corner coming loose. It was on a A3 parachute that is also complete with the back pad saying Will rogers Field and yellow bands on them. I do not have any idea of what is in the first aid kit as I do not think it would be wise to open it. I am trying to put a picture of the kit on but have not mastered that yet.
