cerick1450 Posted February 1, 2019 Share #1 Posted February 1, 2019 Hello A local vets family found this with their grandfathers WW2 items. They believe he brought it home from WW2. Is this a ww2 Taylor Wrist compass. The only markings I can see are Taylor on the front and Rochester N.Y. USA on back. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cerick1450 Posted February 2, 2019 Author Share #3 Posted February 2, 2019 I also forgot to mention that it says Taylor under the band on the back as well. I found this identical compass on the Belgium Paratrooper web site . It indicates that this is a early war made compass... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
