The food packet was packed in the plastic bag for the OV-1 Cold Climate kit only. It is referred to in the manuals as "The Modified Food Packet". The TM called for the ration to be placed in a paperboard box after it was put in the plastic bag. None of the few modified food packets I have seen were in boxes.        It is hard to read the bottom line on the packing list, but it doesn't look like UH-1 to me. At least the 2nd letter doesn't look like an H.   The Army was pretty specific on kits for helicopters and fixed wing aircraft. I don't think a unit would have used the same kit in both aircraft. I couldn't find any information on what aircraft the 283rd flew.

Great wing Patrick, congratulations!

Here is the photo without the yellow lighting. 

Ammmmm, Dude was banned from the site, He can't answer you.

Nice find with this 1st aid bandage pouch.  May I ask where you acquired it?  

The yellowing is from the light I use. It wasn’t daytime when I took this photo. I’ll try to get a clear one updated soon.

Minus all the age yellowing. Nice photo!

Nice photo! Though it does look more like a first LT it could also be a 2nd LT.

No, no, not at all - I got the gist from the discussion. I just didn't know that's what they're called. Prior to this, I always referred to them as, "The round thing on the pedestal with the pointy handles that chimed when you changed the engine speed."  EOT is much easier to say!

Here ya go!
