Original U.S. WWII Paratrooper Wrist Compass by Taylor with Leather Wrist Band Russian Antique Guns ran back to Regimental HeadquartersOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a genuine WW2 issue wartime model wrist compass, as used by Airborne troops on D Day. This example is still fully functional, though it has lost the liquid dampening fluid (usually water), and is in excellent condition with what we believe to be the original issue leather wrist band. The band is in fantastic unissued condition and looks fantastic. The compass is clearly marked on the reverse: U. S. ARMY
