Field Sustainment Kit – WWII Style
This compact and practical repair kit is inspired by the improvised personal gear used by U.S. troops during World War II. Ideal for reenactors, collectors, or enthusiasts of historical military equipment.
The metal tin includes:
-
Sewing needles and 2 strips of moleskin (for blister care)
-
Needle tube with OD-colored thread
-
Small scissors, seam ripper, tweezers, nail clipper
-
Thimble + cork piece (for camouflage or general utility)
While not 100% historically accurate, it is thoughtfully assembled for functional use during events or as part of your WWII impression.
Paratroopers of the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions often relied on improvised kits to fix uniforms or gear in the field. Self-sufficiency was vital during operations deep behind enemy lines.
A compact, no-nonsense kit to keep your field gear operational.
