Got North Atlantic Gas?
You'll need this NATO gas mask, M51 model, in an olive drab canvas bag. Lightly used surplus, it includes a definitely-not-guaranteed cartridge filter. Adjustable mask is medium olive drab/brown. The cartridge screws directly into it below the nose, so it's the symmetrical, alien-look, type. Carrying bag measures approx 12" long x 5" x 5" plus shoulder strap and ring clips. Great for Halloween.

Radiation Meter
Are the kids growing up with pride? Radiating good cheer? You can tell for sure with...What? It’s for nuclear radiation? An old Civil Defense meter? Bummer. Apparently, this OCD radiation meter from the Victoreen Mfg. Co. was made to sniff out the residue of the nuclear holocaust when you emerged from your bomb shelter. Calibrated 5 r/hr (Roentgen) with a X 0.1, X1, X10, X100 sensitivity selector, it runs on (1) “D” battery (not included.) The Civil Defense yellow boxes are about 8” x 4–1/2” x 3–1/2”. It comes with complete instructions for use. The CD V–777–2 includes two 4–1/2” long x 1/2” dia dosimeters and a 2” x 4” x 4” dosimeter charger. This one is used, but it works fine, even if it looks a bit scuffed.

Scorpion Periscope
This is new British surplus, made for the Scorpion tracked combat recon vehicles used by the Brits and/or Belgians from 1972 to 2005. Extremely heavy-duty, it measures 7-1/2" x 9" x 4" overall, in 9-1/2 lbs of olive-drab steel. You look into a 4" x 1-1/4" window and the glass prism shows you the view out of the 6-3/4" x 3-1/4" top window. Has a rubber gasket at the mount, plus a pair of threaded 5/16"-14 mounting holes on either side of the bottom. Start with this and build your own armored truck underneath it.

Masks, Gas, Russian
Assembled in the U.S. from Russian parts, anyway. What we have here is a full range of sizes in gas masks for children, although frankly, the smallest of them are really more Yorkshire-terrier sized. New, but surplus, and while they're rated NBC for nuclear/biological/chemical contaminants, they carry absolutely no guarantees. These are to be used as part of a collection, or for costume/novelty purposes. The children's masks come with a 12" long hose, filter tank, defogging pencil, and carrying pouch. The Small is for faces less than 4-1/4" between cheekbones (and less than 3" from the top of the nose to the chin). Medium is for 4-1/4" to 4-1/2" (3" to 3-3/8" top of the nose to the chin).

German Decontamination Kit
New surplus from the other side of the Rhine. Nice dark-olive-drab plastic case, 8-1/2" x 8" x 4-1/2" with a slip-on lid on a removable canvas strap. Inside is a pair of 1-liter bottles, 7" tall x 3-1/2" square, with screw caps that have white nylon brushes on 4" long shafts inside. If you're not into military decontamination, it's ideal for traveling sign-painters.

Mystery Surplus Rope
Almost certainly military, but its original purpose is lost. You get (30) feet of 3/16" dia brownish rope with (32) 3-1/4" long papoose-shaped steel wire loops affixed every 10" along (24) feet of it. Could have been to hang equipment between trees, make a bivouac shower stall, harness a huge sled-dog team, or hook-up skinny POWs for a long march. You might string camping lights or wet clothing on it, take a couple of dozen puppies for a walk, or make a really tough stringer for big fish.

Throw A Tarp Over It
And tie it down with these Grizz Grip® tarp clips. The dark olive plastic clips are 5-1/4" long x just-over 1" wide, and can be hooked to any line, cord or fence up to 1/2" dia. The jaws grip any material up to 1/4" thick, even if it's wet or slick, support up to 160 lbs, and just hold tighter as tension is applied to the tarp. Rated to withstand temperatures down to -35°F. Made in the USA.

Stake Frites
Direct from the French army, these giant steel tent stakes are scary big. They're T-bars approx 2 feet long x 1-5/8", tapered at one end. A pair of 7/8" dia rods extends 2-3/4" from each side near the top. Large enough for circus tents, or driving through the heart of a really large robotic vampire.

Red Circle On A Stick
Which apparently means "Road Closed" in Germany. It's 21" long OA, a 15/16" dia wooden handle with a 6" dia reflective metal disk on the end, white with a red circle on the perimeter. Like a miniature version of the lollipop lady (crossing guard) signs in the UK. Take it out and stop Audis in their tracks, or use it as a target, group leader signal, or as an emergency canoe paddle.

Underwater Kite
Very cool absolutely useless kite-like thing consisting of a central 19" dia disc and (2) 9 ft. "tails" one emerging from each side of the central disc. The disc is actually a metal hoop. It is covered with a very light, strong non-woven fibrous material that is translucent and extremely porous, allowing water to pass right through it. The tails are made of this same material. We have been told it is some kind of drogue for a chute used with a depth charge. We are also told it was used under water. We surmise it is an underwater drogue used to deploy a detector antenna. But it may just be a toy for Merkids. We think you will find it amusing, and may wish to chop it up and use the cool fabric in your own construction. White or olive drab, our choice.

Artillery Takeout
The Australian Army's answer to "Hey, Mate, aim a little higher. Ya hit "B" Company!" This fuze indicator from a '70s artillery piece works like a circular slide rule and determines firing settings for 105 mm shells. It has a 15-3/4" dia aluminum plate sandwiched between (2) 14" dia plates covered with numbers and trajectories, all of which rotate inside a fixed arm. Eminently collectible, and reversible to display Charges 1, 2 and 3 (red and blue trim) or Charges 4 and 5 (orange and green)!
