    hello there guys.

    my mom bought an item today but we are not sure what it is, the seller told us it is dated around 1945 and thinks it belonged to a soldier.

    to me it looks like a survival box where you can put dry tinder in and to light the tinder they made a glass in the box to redirect the sun. thats what it looks like.
    maybe you guys have any more idea or info for me?

    there is a mark on it that says D.R.P ang.

    i will post a picture in a few minutes.

    greetings, stanislaw widurski

        I have found some information about a object that might bring some "light" up on this object of yours. Its not identical but its very similar to yours and therefore I would assume its ment to be for the same purpose. What I found was circle shaped and it was a battery driven small early flashlight in pocket size.

        Ill type in the link here, and you can read for youself.

        I must make clear, this is just a guess. Does anyone else have any idéa?
