1944 USN M-592 Pilot Survival Kit Navy Ration MRE Taste Test Vintage Gadgets + Fishing Kit in a Can

This is a US Navy WWII Naval Airspace Specification M59 rear pad kit. The outer material is a gray-green waterproof canvas with white shoulder straps with a connecting strap on the front. Here this kit turned out to be too bulky. Pushing the

pilot

too far up in the cockpit seat was very uncomfortable. Not many of these were produced. This kit has a little bit of everything, so let's check this out first. They are standard all-purpose gloves. These are quite heavy. -duty - they are not cheap everything smells like leather and some kind of industrial glue even though this is fabric it actually smells like leather these brooches you don't want to unfasten old historical things you just work from underneath it is some unfasten them they will just break.

I have seen it before. This right here. It almost feels like wax paper. Your crash landing, say, in the Pacific campaign, in a tropical environment on an island, has a nice cord, I'm not going to pull on it, I'm not going to ruin it too much, a beautiful mosquito net of excellent shape that also smells like leather. old plastic. Set them aside for a moment until we can start taking these things out. This is a poncho that I don't really want to unfold for several reasons, mainly because if it's stiff it will just break. I can not, I can not.

I don't mess with it much, but oh yeah, this smells like the other stuff, it goes to an Army and Navy store like a good one that still has an old military axe, not like one of those where it's all main porcelain material Of reproduction. good Army and Navy store and give it a whiff of some of that stuff it smells like that this kit took me a long time to locate there is a machete one thing is still wrapped you can see its impeccable condition this part comes off it is a plate protector Look at that case, it's a nice compact fixed blade machete that would grab anything, it's very sturdy with a leather strap, the end is still intact and not fragile. 90% of the time when you find these kits, they are empty, completely empty, a signal mirror. and the record is wrapped in a line of craft foil.

I think there might be some kind of cellophane or something inside, besides having this intact we can sort out how many of these are left in stock, I'm not sure how far I could really look at something like this. This is an emergency signaling mirror. ESM. This is like the original signaling mirror. Look at that side. It has no cracks. It is in very good condition. This is actually one of the most common items in this kit. Look at that beautiful braided cord. It means that you could use that bead for a multitude of purposes by holding the side of the mirror a few centimeters from the base of your eye, halfway between the Sun and the rescuer, you will look through this if the sun shining through the cross does not fall on your person. with the other hand or with the tilting surface mirror to view in this round reflector the image of the bright cross thus formed, I will love the text while observing the rescuer through the center of the cross tilt mirror to direct the bright image back to through the cross signal. directly at the rescuer, perform a horizon scan with the beam aimed even if there are no rescuers in sight, as the mirror has a range of up to 10 miles.

General Electric Company is very innovative for its time and we will then use it as a reference for the rest of the kit. but look, a pause is necessary and that's right, this is a reversible poncho that you can use if you want to hide from the enemy or whoever you're wearing it, that blue is facing out or if you want to be rescued. and seen by your neighbor, you use it to wear, that yellow faces outwards and this will protect you from salt water splashes, it can be attached to your raft, it says that here on land the poncho will serve as a protector against the elements and it does not needless to say.

Those cotton gloves will be used along with the

fishing

kit that we will see. You have to wear gloves when holding the line open. This is a fascinating read. Now skip this if you don't want to review this part. Discover someone Rudin's mere instructions for the trusty can, which prevents corrosion. Some recording paper, you know, so you can write notes like someone did. I wonder when that was written. It is absolutely fascinating. Okay, so the burning glass is still in its original. box, this is going to be essential to help you start a fire, without having to rely on matches and things that will potentially get wet or damaged or in limited quantity, so this will be the first layer that we'll look at and then we'll open it up in the next section.

Look at it again. I don't keep any of these taken and this is why I'm looking at this one. I did not do it. That happened to someone else. Actually, I wouldn't have done this. I learned my mistake from an old first aid kit about five years ago, it was a fold out kit and I broke two clasps, they just broke anyway, you can see there are a couple of items that are actually missing, there was a hissing sound, another part from this. three bags first aid kit again craft oil blind paper look at this I mentioned that a part of this is missing, naturally, that part is the one with the morphine syringes and the iodine swabs and a 4 inch compressed bandage, but that's okay , I want to take it out from the bottom because otherwise you will break them like this before we continue with that, let's take a closer look at everything sunburn ointment match small sharpening stone sure you have

ration

s that bag will be there that is something really cool can drinking water Which I won't open , my apologies, it's just that this six to seven one-man

fishing

kit was initially a deployment kit that extended up to here.

It was in a bag like this. We'll explain it shortly, but this is here. We will be reviewing this and I will also show another kit in the middle of this review that gives everyone a great idea of ​​what was originally in this kit. This kit had replacements. I think the imperial m5 75 knife was replaced by this knife this was part of a c1

survival

vest we do this now I think this is more useful pretty awesome look at this you could do a lot with this I mean collecting all purpose firewood, you could fillet fish, of course, look that's not playing with a real patina of character on that thing, oh yeah, that's right, the first aid kit that's here, be very careful with this stuff, this is a pack of sulfadiazine, this is to treat infections, an infection preventative, it's like old school antibiotics, warning this.

The medication can cause serious toxic reactions and irreparable damage. Follow the instructions on the back of the box until medical voltage is available. Instructions in case of serious wounds or burns. Take the contents of an envelope. Four tablets at a time. Thereafter, the tablets can be chewed. Take only one tablet every four hours. Warning to Only use it as stated above otherwise you will have toxicity and as they said irreparable damage, that's really something, now look at that, it's beautiful. Sorry, I got excited about the strangest things, so two tubes of boric acid for burn treatment. ointment and four strips of scopolamine preventative against Hydra braum motion sickness.

I'm probably not saying that beat at all. I've never heard anyone pronounce it. Who is this? Oh yeah, and sterile crystalline sulfanilamide, which is an antibacterial and antimicrobial infection preventive powder that prevents it. Many deaths during the war from infection, compared to World War I from injuries, but we will see this first boric acid. Lichtman for topical application only ejects the alignment directly onto the burned area covered with a bandage and bandage lightly and then the fight. means hydrobromide or hydrobromide tomato tomahto dizziness poison preventive dangerous when taken in excess should not be taken when you have been given morphine it will probably make you sleepy I guess it is not a good combination and I am not going to open this I'm sorry I can't?

I hope you understand that it is something along with sulfadiazine. You just can't do things like that. Now this one seems to have been opened or something. I could take a look at it. Actually, I'm going to do it. because look at that, yeah, cool, this one we can see, so you'll see these same packages and bandages from Carlisle like, let's see if I have any, we're lying around, yeah, now I see this one, you'd see the same lens. package and this first aid package US Government Model Carlisle refer to sulfonamide in these instructions open the outer package remove the inner package and open it by tearing one outer end of the package is not sterile after controlling bleeding sprinkle powder and wound covering dead and injured surfaces lightly and then cover with sterile bandages and dressings warning that this medication should be used as directed, using no more than two packs and one person's wounds Now, if you ever want to see what this does, like watching Save the Private Ryan and when Erin Wade gets it, oh wait.

I just realized two of these were used, there are only three here and it's five packs, yeah, look at Saving Private Ryan, aluminum, yeah, the tragic scene, cut the movie with the doctor, it gets pretty bad, but they are pouring these packets over them and if I want to see those things as using something incorrect; You're not actually supposed to wear it that way, you're supposed to wait after you control the bleeding, then you put this on to get those poor guys we're trying to treat to the doctor. and they didn't know what they were doing, so they used sulfonamide, burn treatment and seasickness pills, seasickness pills, imagine you're in the sea, you're on a raft, you have this thing and you have your paragraph kit, it which I'm sorry.

I don't have a paragraph kit. Eventually I'll find something like that. I will be able to present it here. Let's move on to this bottle of Can't Rust with a K, I can trust you won't be able to get it out either. just look at it there and enjoy it for what it is, it's a rust preventative and I can't take it off, I don't even want to touch it, it looks like someone taped it over because it was leaking which was nice, it's too much. flimsy at this point but we can check this out hopefully there we go it just slid out pretty easily oh cool look you need a compass at the end of the matchbox it's pointing right where North is , this way, yeah, you got that burning. glass, but you only have a limited amount of matches, it's definitely like an almost dark periwinkle purple color with a red tip.

I've never seen matches like that before, this might have been where the Straker was, at the bottom I think. It's a little worn out, you've got a USA marked on the bottom all Americans, the sunburn ointment, yeah, interesting canvas outer bag here, oh that smells amazing, it smells like metal, a nursing home, Hmm, I can't identify it. Naval Medical Research Institute, Sunburn Ointment, Three Point Six Net Ounces, Directions, Apply Thin. sunburn treatment and prevention cape for external use only Wow, yes, it's kind of caked-on, caked-on smells, like cat urine, cool set left it like that for a moment, expose them too, unfortunately we don't have that last part from the first aid kit, but again, that's the number one looted part of this, someone in the past was having fun with it, is it okay or was it used, you know, it was actually used for its purpose, you never know, so this kind of opening on this side, safety pins, duct tape, what is that in the center?

Safety pins are multi-purpose, ideal for holding a bandage in place and hanging clothing. Heat the end of one of these and you should be able to remove some ticks. All-purpose

survival

item, so what is this? These are salt tablets that I am NOT going to unwrap, my apologies, they are just white tablets, there are eight, eight salt tablets and that is to replenish the sodium to prevent dehyd

ration

and how cool. small place to allocate them also according to the instruction booklet, you can crush those salt tablets and use them to eliminate leeches. Let's move on to the next item.

You will get three US Navy emergency rations for life rafts. This is the ration review part. This Singh Survival Kit weighs 5 ounces and, from what I've read, contains approximately 370 calories, a 24-hour calorie-restricted survival ration that is designed not to provoke thirst and is composed primarily of carbohydrates and fats with only a very small of real. protein, the contents are listed: 5 sucrose and citric acid tablets, 10 sucrose and lipid and citric acid tablets, 8 sucrose and malted milk tablets, multivitamin tablets, chewing gum tablets and a waterproof bag packed by charms company and charms in the time their factory was in Bloomfield, New Jersey, and quite a bit. the storm going on out there is kind of cozy.

I couldn't help it, but the film is at this point, so instead of opening it normally, I want to slide it back into the m59 back pad kit 2 to display it. I'm donating that big kit to a museum, solet's give it a nice little touch that smells perfect like fruity mint and is beautiful. They allocated each space, so appropriately leave that single tablet, otherwise it would have been like this. a little space in space the only time I saw one of these outside of this was not on my III a personal aid kit but look at that, everything is a mess and liquefied, we will review it at some point along with an e 17 There many more children in my collection, but I actually see it where it is not liquefied because the oxygen has not reached this thing and it has wreaked havoc as always.

Look, here's your sucrose lipid citric acid tablets, so there's your fats and carbohydrates, Krause citric acid tablets and malted milk tablets, multivitamin tablets. I wouldn't take them on an empty stomach, even with this, it would be unwise for there to be B vitamins in that and you would have the worst stomach pain and nausea. Hopefully you have some fish you are catching. Check out that Wrigley PK and check out these clips to close this bag here for unused ration portions. Insert the components of the ration. Hold the flap firmly and secure it with clips and you know, if you're in the sea, the last thing you want to happen with these things is to get salt water splashed on it, something like that could poison the contents with salt, which would then dehydrate you and not you want to get splashed. come out, you want to wear that poncho, look, there you go, that's the way to do it.

I mean, it's a little patchy, but to show it on this kit that I have, it's perfect, so there's the original life raft tablet ration. let's take this out on a tray, in case first let's start with the blue packet, it's the malted milk tablets and here the citric acid tablets, look at that immaculate shape, take this aside. I said this is the blue package where you can just read the amulets, then there are the lipid tablets, oh wow, they're like... that's the cu

test

little thing, they're like little hard candy bars, essentially, of that's where you get the fats from. there is fat, protein and carbohydrates in this, it is a very complete food, really yes, here you get everything you need, it is much better than real food in a survival situation, everyone wonders, do you know why sweets?

Well, protein requires more water to assimilate, you want fish, which one are you? know the fish you get your hydration from it you get your protein you wonder how you get hydration from fish well it's simple the fish has blood its eyeballs half the moisture here we go oh wow indistinguishable citrus with a slight sweetness the fats are not rancid everything is a little waxy I just want to chew it I know I can't because I know how to break your teeth this would last you all day this is for me this is delicious serious thunder I can't imagine how wonderful it would be if You were starving and it's activating my salivary glands considerably .

This was designed to keep you from feeling thirsty and still give you nutrition and some sugar to keep your energy levels up and keep you focused while you're sitting there fishing on the raft and try not to. to lose your mind, okay, I'm going to put this here, there's a little bit left that's a little bit waxy like a binder that prevents it from completely melting and that's something that at that point is also kind of advanced because a lot of candy is absolute. Pure sugar without temperature, you know, under climate control conditions, something like that would just melt and can be a kind of stabilizer.

I don't want to take too much time, just standing there eating the same thing, so a citric acid tablet, hmm, that's it. amazing real candies I love old candies when they are perfectly preserved, look at the little speckled pieces, it's like flavoring of some kind, it

taste

s like a very natural pineapple extract type flavor, it really

taste

s like pineapple and orange. I'm going to set this up. here for a second and we'll move on to the next one. I want to enjoy that I can't stay here. This will make this video last forever. I promise you I'm going to eat all of this.

It's just that they can do it again. Don't film all that, it'll just be redundant, there's no way I'm going to waste any of this, it's okay, I don't enjoy it as much now, it just tastes like pure orange with a slight cherry flavor, both multi-fruit flavored. like dimensions of fruit flavor, not just a linear fruit flavor, this is the real charm candy, the kind that charms is not as good as it used to be and heck, these servings are actually still made to this day here like this one this good one The six day foot from 2008 looks great it's still made to this day now you get twice as much gum and instead of all these cool tablets this one is just a lovely gum and I have a bunch of these, Don't worry, well, I used to. much of the way I only have one left, okay and then I see that this food in the survival pack will be beneficial even when the water supply is limited when consumed in one day these foods will maintain survival efficiency do not wet the items and keep them unused items in the bag, how did you get this little lanyard?

This was what was first added in 1950 and closed at the top, although it's a ridiculous addition to this because you can just fold it over, but the charms and this here is like a very light cinnamon gum and this is just mint, real sugar, but today's charms have all these different flavors, they all taste totally artificial. These are not the charms of World War II or the Korean War era, these are the charms of modern times. and they are okay, there are more flavors, but they are not as good, sorry, it is a useful ration that has been in service longer than most rations out there, in fact it might be the longest ration ever made, so let's take a look at a malted milk. tablet the milk is preserved perfectly in this the milk solids many times old milk can't be used but I think the sugar and the packet can preserve this quite well ooh, it shouldn't have been in that, okay, wait, yeah, okay, yeah. it's perfect this again you can't chew them properly I'm anyway now oh wow that's amazing malted milk tastes like vanilla malt in hard candy form because it's just oh wait that's right the bubblegum screams I was going to say it's It's a little redundant to be here and eat all this.

I'm going to put the rest in this bag. Oh wow, okay, that's kind of fragile. This Wrigley's PK is the best mint candy coated gum ever, so this was the first generation. us. Navy Emergency Life Raft Ration which evolved into the Life Raft Tablet Ration which later became a food packet, aircraft life raft survival, the vitamins, I should say for show, I don't take old vitamins , just old B vitamins like b6, and it'll just give me you're a weird B vitamin burp and it doesn't do anything for you, trust me, I don't normally finish my servings in a video, but I'm going to wrap it up and take us back to that back patch kit, as for the bag, keep it for display later.

I finished the sweets that lead us to canned water. I went against my rule and opened that one because there is no other way. I have to be very careful. I'm glad it didn't break. It is empty. I didn't even realize that that's really good. I'm kind of glad these don't degrade further or anything can't really open it. Wow, wow, so yeah, there's a wax seal that's just dried out or evaporated over the years, so it was produced in September

1944

, canned water and something like this, you've probably seen canned water in the form of cold war era cylinder, but you won't see much on the road now, this kit is also a ration room and take it out, leave this drinking water kit, it's almost identical in size and will probably be more useful this is a desalinator that would produce significantly more water than just canned water check out these extension tapes for the back pad kits these drinking water kits replace the canned water in these back pads and are a little larger so they have these Quick extenders that match this children's back pad make drinking water from salt water in July 1945 and a much more appropriate space allocation for this kit, then say just a can of drinking water than when the drink runs out.

I'm going to replace this again. its place, but not before I'm going to leave this in its place. I'm not going to unzip it and unroll it. Right there is 25 feet of sunny 5-pound

test

, drop-purpose line you could use for endless possibilities. of improvising with five pound test sunny, 25 foot line including shelter fishing, possible first aid purposes, you tie something, I mean, you could really do a lot with it, but it goes back to its place never to be again in the center, hey, come on, then. Let's move on to the fishing kit. I'm glad this isn't completely broken, it's just hanging on a couple of threads, so I replaced the deployment kit.

This one is more efficient and contains things that keep things from rusting and getting soaked because the other kit was in a small drop cloth kit similar to the one inside this bag here we will go over this shortly let me give you a good idea of ​​how It's that drop down kid, it's like the emergency fishing kit in a can that was placed in approved life rafts. by the United States Coast Guard this was produced on January 29, 1943 this would be placed inside the compartments of a life raft you would take it out here it is placed inside the raft so you wouldn't trip over it wouldn't get lost you know where it was , it was in a special compartment, so let's check it, take out that key with that tab, no hiss, the top of that lid had been glued to this for years, so a slight tear was made there.

Singh is probably 5 pounds it just got completely sealed in time okay so get a pair of gloves because you can't hold the line especially if you hook a shark with just your bare hands or a big tuna or whatever the line Take off with just a pair of bare gloves. hands, that's no fun material construction workmanship certified quality boss Bureau of Standards made in USA the boss manufacturing company so look at this, this is part of this kit, it's looted immediately you'll see these drop down kits that actually They are the sink and tie you like an apron look at this day crackling baits in dry pack ready to use we will keep it indefinitely it will turn white as snow when you put it in the water a fish will think it is a piece of squid and will look for it Now the The thing is that when you run out of that bait, you need to save pieces of the last fish you caught.

Check this out, it's a nice treble hook already pre-weighed and ready to rock. Look, it's kind of the thing when you're on a life raft, you have to be careful, you don't want to puncture your raft with this kind of thing. I bet you that happens, there's probably a good chance they'll get that far just by pushing their raft with a treble hook look at this a filleting knife I think this will be Wow, it's amazing what's in this protective cover look at the Imperial Providence Rhode Island. I have never seen one in such a beautiful shape and you have this line that you wrap around your hand because if you lose this, but it will be a shame, you know you won't be able to fish or cut the bait.

I think this is a web and I'm sorry I'm not going to unravel it. I'm going to spoil it, it's very stiff and it looks like yeah, that's really stuck in there. I'm not going to mess with a collectible like that. I mean, I already opened it, it dropped the value from about 200 to about 85 dollars. you have the idea you have your grip this thing comes out it's a net so you can catch things with it or pull a fish that's floating Wow this I think is a harpoon yeah that's really useful hook a tuna or something don't catch a shark, You're not supposed to have read old survival books, they say not to catch sharks right.

I mean, how can you guarantee that you're not going to hook and keep pulling a shark? I mean, if you see one approaching, what? You do it, you just cut the line and let it go. Don't know. I think I'd be fighting the thing, especially if I was starving. You could improvise with this harpoon. Place a stick at the end. Let's say you hooked it big. group or tuna and you really want to make sure the thing stays hooked, it's a good amount of line for easily 75 pound test and it's thirty meters of line and this one is also thirty meters and it's essentially a pre-baited J hook, the hooks are guy buried in there a fish will think it's a squid or a little bit like a small baitfish too and again you don't necessarily need this bait to catch things between this and being able to hook something with that treble hook you're in good shape you could definitely improvise this would hook something big on this you could catch a nice snapper something like this will go down thirty meters and this is what I would be hooking some of that crackling bait to catch a snapper or grouper again that one is very handy that's probably what I would use more with bait and this is essentially the same as the one in the center here and the Chrome that comes out of this is stillquite usable, so you get extra hooks. a weight on the bottom, there it's stuck on the bottom, you get a bunch of extra standard J hooks, you get a whetstone, this will save your life, because I mean a lot of these things will rip off, you'll lose the hook .

If you dropped this in water, this wood it's attached to would most likely float just fine. They give you that whetstone. You could sharpen your fillet knife or hooks. Now this is just a standard test, probably fifty pounds, pre-weighed and I'll just leave this. put this in I guess it weighs about 75 pounds the ease for our hundred pound test this is 50 pounds maybe 75 now this is part of the cloth kit that was originally on the m59 this is your bait line and bait hook and You are going to need this to be able to catch fish that you can use with larger hooks to catch an even bigger fish.

I think there's about a hundred feet of line there. It is at least thirty pound proof that is part of the m59. cloth fishing kit for two, this is the crackling bait, a small instruction booklet and an extra five pound test line and that's all there is in the original cloth kit, so you get these items here yese would be your kit, then a paper instruction sheet that is at least waxed waterproof and this is a guide to all of these components and this gives you a great idea of ​​what was originally put in that back pad kit right now. that you have a good idea of ​​what that drop down kid is like, let's look at the m62 7 fishing kit and compare well, so here is the one man spec of the M 6 to 7 fishing kit.

I think these things were only in that kit for a short time. While you normally see that little fabric unfolding kit, but I have a feeling it doesn't have waterproofing and things would get damaged, you would save this tape for resealing the box or for other improvisation purposes, so from the beginning a little of synthetic pork rinds. This is your bait, okay, so here's just a standard line. I'm guessing 25 feet of 50 pound test so here are some hooks in various sizes and this is a dressed side wash hook which is a very simple little fishing kit. you get six pieces of artificial baits.

The artificial pork rind bait will float a little and look like little pieces of squid. The m62 seven is perhaps not as good as the original launch kit in terms of catching a larger fish, but for catching a more reasonable size. fishing and not hooking a huge shark, you know, with these not too big J hooks, you'll have a good chance of catching what you need, so now let's move on to what's in this bag. This is a brand three flare projector from Very with six flares all still intact in the kit, that thing is waxed flares, waterproofed, red flares with a 250 foot range that won't fit there like it is here, so we're going to have than to remove the wax, this will prove well, so I peeled them off slowly but surely. remove that layer of plastic, that is, check that mark for reading, put it in place, it's about to get dark, it won't be so dark outside that you can't see it, and you'll still be able to see the flare. oh yeah, I forgot to mention the whetstone, this whetstone is perfect for keeping your fishing hook sharp, sharpening that razor and even that machete, okay, so let's take a look at this berry flare projector.

Well, I'm glad it's a wet night, it just rained on the Fourth of July. Not bad, well that was exciting. It's a little difficult to keep the camera focused. Smells good. Singing as security. I was sitting there. I wonder what the problem is. It does not work. This thing works great, so there it is hollowed out. One less of these had to open this, but it was closed again, not bad to be able to present a survival kit that had never been filmed before and now this is reviewed in various WWII history museums. I will choose the correct one.

That's where I think this should go so it was a 92 m5 rear pad kit so this is Steve 1989. I hope you liked the video now we're back with something new girls cool see ya.
