Royal Australian Army Medical Corps Kit Bag

[christek]

Interesting mix of medical gear issued in the 1960’s. Wound dressings: 1950’s British made ‘Standard Dressing No 15 B.P.C'. Made by Robinson & Sons Ltd, Chesterfield and the standard Johnson and Johnson field dressings, all dated ’44. Two styles of tourniquet, one with aluminium buckles: both unmarked. Sanax Melbourne canvas medical bag, dated ’66 is not often seen. Sanax gauze bandages. British made surgeons needles and several rolls of stitching thread. The US made Wilson safety glasses are interesting; the glass is about 5 mm thick! Swann Morton surgical blades.

That is a nice collection of items in that bag, not often do you find such goodies all together like this.
