Hi,
I just got this medic pouch today. It is made by Paul Klopfer Berlin in 1938. Marked K for Stretcher-bearer (Krankenträger) and R for right (rechts) location on the belt. On the bottom it is marked VIII2024 - any ideas ? unit ?
Thanks.

Hello,
Not sure at all, but VIII could be the number of the Wehrkreis and 2024 an issue number, like 2024th pouch issued within Wehrkreis VIII...
Thanks

Hi
I agree with above post.
The wehrkreis issued/received equipment had a number on them. I have similar medical equpiment with numbers on them and I reckon they were there for audit purposes and the other tutonic habit of recording and documenting everything !
cheers

Great - thanks !
VIII - Breslau - another Wehrkreis VIII item !
I like it.
All the best

Thanks
I wish I could find the same pouch or any items related to wehrkreis I.
