Default Wmc

Found a tiny makers stamp

WMC with a N underneath . N would be NSW

FJS & Co Pty LTD 1943 is marked on the leather cap. Aussie disposals had some nice stuff back then . All they have now is ex West German army apparel and other junk. Few years back I did score a few hundred of the Canadian WW2 utility pouches very cheap .

This is what I've always known as an ALDIS lamp. Hand held and often used for signaling from one ship to another. Ron
