Original US WW2 1st Pattern First Aid pouch with content (Airforce / Airborne)

Super rare US WW2 airborne item

The first Aid pouch has all his contents :

- Wound dressing

- Tourniquet

- Morphine syrette box with the instruction paper and the syrette

The Morphine tartrate has been removed from the syrette

The Parachute First Aid Packet (Medical Department N°9778500) was issued to every parachute wearer during WW2 (Aircrew and Paratroopers).

This pouch did NOT replace the standard first aid packet issued to every GI. It was an extra piece of equipment containing a Wound Dressing, Morphine Syrette and Tourniquet, and sometimes a note on how to use the Tourniquet and Morphine;

In addition to Aircrew and Paratroopers, the packet was issued to every member of the US Assault Forces (infantry, crewmembers of DD tanks, etc.) for operation OVERLORD; the Normandy Invasion.<:p>

The pouch was made of rubberised fabric that could be tied to any equipment by means of the attached straps.

First Pattern pouches were equipped with a zipper and marked FIRST AID in large letters on the front.
