EOD - bombs and bullets
Scored this beauty 2 weekends ago at the DACA show in Dallas from a guy walking around. He came up to my table on Saturday and mentioned he had a army compass, wanted to know if I was interested...I said sure, figuring it would be a US Army Corps of Engineers compass....
He came back Sunday, and pulled this out...I thought...oooh! I asked how much he wanted for it, he said $35, I said Yes, Please!
Makes a nice companion to my other like this, which is not cold proofed (The white "A" on the lid meant it was treated for very cold weather use), and is a little better made....
I should get pics of them together, along with my non-issue type compasses...These black ones were standard issue types, but many private purchase types were used also.
