Sleeve, Gas Detector, 1940

€385.00 Tax included

Genuine WWII British sleeve gas detector, issued to airborne troops and first-wave units of the amphibious landings on D-Day.

Manufactured in March 1940.

This brown paper armband was impregnated with a chemical reagent intended for alerting its wearer in the case of a gas attack otherwise undetectable; this type was massively used by the US Army.

Quite good, worn condition.
