Post subject: "Your papers, please!" - WWII Pilot Escape Kit Photos
Interesting little history prepared by a friend in the militaria collecting and brokerage world (I can personally attest to his effectiveness in that regard!) and also the tireless webmaster of the VHPAmuseum website (links within).

Facinating document with a twist on WWII pilot escape kits and how they could be used against a captured airman by....well, I'll let John tell it. Wink

This is a keeper, Ascout recommends "saving to disk"....(and a big hint as to how to acquire rare items like this for the discerning collector)

"Ihre papiere, Bitte!"
