The Story
Original Item: Only One Available. This is an excellent condition British WWII Pattern 1937 (P-37) Medic's Shoulder Bag, which looks to be service-worn. The bag measures about 12"W x 10"W x 3", though as it is flattened it is hard to get an accurate measurement. It is made of the correct P-37 Green Canvas, and uses the standard strap through buckle closure for the lid. The shoulder strap is made of somewhat finer canvas.
The front of the bag has a very nice painted "Red Cross" medic emblem, and the lid is marked 9.275.220 BG. Field medics had to carry various different types of field dressings, depending on the type of wound. Lots of gauze was also definitely a requirement.
The bag has a small sealed Australian shell dressing, which is dated June 1941 manufactured in Sydney.
An excellent example of a British WWII Medic Bag, ready to add to your collection!
