I was wondering if anyone or museum was looking for some 1950s Causality Evacuation Bags (Wounded not KIA bags)for a display or anything? Here are a few shots of what I have. They are used, but overall in very good shape. I think this is the worst of the lot. As you can tell by the picture this bad boys are warm! I’ve sleep out in below Zero conditions in these and never got cold.

I’m sorry that I can’t give this away but I need some funds and I wanted to offer them here before I toss them to the wolves on E-bay.

If you have any questions feel free to PM me. I'll try to get back to you with what I know.

tim, how did you get those?? while not attractive in their former suited use, as a collectable, they are historic in their own right.

I might be interested in a couple. I saw Swedish style at Major Surplus for $35.00. I screwed around and they were gone.

How did I get them, we had friends in the right places I guess :wink:

I have only seen this listed in a surplus catalog once and they were going for $200. Those where new and that was also about 25-20 years ago. $35 is a bit low for these things IMO
