bryang Posted November 5, 2015 Share #1 Posted November 5, 2015 I found this recently and have no clue what it is. It has a small pouch (missing the button) next to an elongated zippered pouch. The zipper has a small crimp in the link, which won't allow me to zip it open (I don't want to tear it). It has a name stenciled on each side of it. I was thinking perhaps this is a personal grooming or sewing kit? Thanks - Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doyler Posted November 5, 2015 Share #3 Posted November 5, 2015 Agree with Alec. This one looks to be made out of bandoleer material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks - Bryan Hi Bryan, it's a money belt, lots of different styles for these, generally sold at the PX during WWII, take a look at this link for a few more. http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/213791-gi-money-belt/?hl=%2Bmoney+%2Bbelts&do=findComment&comment=1682309 lewis. .
