WWII GERMAN ARMY FIELD COMPASS -
The German armed forces developed a series of tools and accessories to be used out in the field. These items were designed to make the execution of the soldier's job more effective and to make life easier. Some of the tools were very similar to the ones used during WWI. However. other items were of brand new design.

In some instances the soldiers were issued items of WWI vintage. That explains why some of the war souvenirs are older but were captured during WWII.
