MODEL 1910 DIAGNOSTIC TAG POUCH – “LIKE NEW”
UNISSUED: Intended to be issued with both the
Officer and Enlisted Man’s Medical Belts, mounted on the
right front lower edge of the belts, this Model 1910
Diagnostic Tag Booklet Pouch carried, as the name
states, the Diagnostic Tag Booklet. An integral and
important component of the medical belts as the
diagnostic tags tracked the personal data, the wounds,
the treatment as it was applied and the medication
(morphine) the wounded soldier received as he was
evacuated from the battlefield.
Measuring 6 ½” long and 3 ¼” high, this pouch presents
in “like new” unissued condition, showing no signs of
having been issued or worn. The snaps retain their
original blackened finish and are fully functional with
no wear or tearing. The inside of the pouch flap is ink
stamped “R.H. LONG” and “8 - 1918”, identifying the
maker and the date of manufacture.
Far less common than the standard
First Aid Pouches, these Diagnostic Booklet Pouches have
become scarce on the market. (0591) $125
