RAF First Aid Packet

In addition to basic first aid supplies, RAF personnel were also issued a special air crew first aid packet. Burns from flash fires were particularly common flying injuries, especially on the hands.  This  kit included not only the standard bandage and morphine, but also burn jelly as well as special gloves impregnated with an antiseptic ointment. The contents were hermetically sealed inside a rubberized cloth pouch. Slits at each corner allowed the kit to be ripped open easily. 

This  is an excellent reproduction of this very rare item. The period rubberized cloth is hermetically sealed like originals, and is complete with the extensive instructions screen printed on the pouch. Slits at each corner, and attachment tabs allow the kit to function like the original. Available either sealed up with dummy contents inside for display, or empty with one side left open for you to insert your own items inside.

Filled for display: $ 29.95   (Out of stock)
Empty pouch: $23.95
