Protective M4 Ointment Box and Tube with Gas Detection Pamphlet

$10.00 

Reproduction WW2 M4 Protective Ointment Box, Tube and Gas Detection Pamphlet.

This box held a tube with ointment to neutralize vesicant gasses or sprays that got in contact with the skin. It was carried inside the bag with the new lightweight gas mask.  A box of ointment was also carried inside the rubberized bag for the assault gas mask used on D-day.

This sturdy box, made from corrugated B-flute cardboard, consists of an outer sleeve and two telescoping inserts. In addition there is a small collar that fits around the neck of the tube of ointment to prevent it from bouncing around.

The kit consists of:

1 Box, 1 Tube and 1 Pamphlet.
