Fly USMC Posted February 8, 2009 Share #1 Posted February 8, 2009 Is this something used by a pathfinder to mark a drop zone or Landing Zone? It is from the post Veitnam period, possibly South American wars / Granada use? any thoughts. Thanks John Alwasy looking to trade for USMC Helicopter items.

hawkdriver Posted February 8, 2009 Share #4 Posted February 8, 2009 Commonly called bean bag lights. Yours is dated 77. You would put sand or rocks in the bag to hold it down from the rotorwash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
