WORLD WAR TWO US ARMY GRAVES REGISTRATION PERSONAL
EFFECTS BAG: A grim reminder of the cost of
battle, this is an original World War Two US Army Graves
Registration Personal Effects Bag, used to secure the
deceased soldier’s personal possessions and record the
details of his death.
The OD green cotton twill bag is equipped with a cloth
tape drawstring for closure and has a waterproof,
rubberized internal bag sewn to one side of the exterior
material, creating two separate compartments in the
bag’s interior. The paper label sewn to the bag
provides for the recording of the soldier’s personal and
unit information. As expected, this specimen is
unused/unissued and has survived in excellent
condition.
Again, this is a somber addition to your World War Two
or Medical collection, however it does put the rest of
the items we collect into the proper historical
context. “Lest we forget…”. $20.00
