Jungle Flotation Bladder (WWII)

The jungle soldier is provided with two rubberized fabric bladders, each displacing between six and eight pounds of water. These bladders can be easily and rapidly inflated by blowing through a small rubber tube and then closing this tube by trucking the end under a fabric loop. When inflated the bladders will keep the wearer afloat. They can also utilized as auxiliary canteens.
