French A.N.P. T-31 Artillerie

The French A.N.P. T-31 Artillerie used the same cloth facepiece as its predecessor the A.R.S., but had a completely different metal inlet/outlet assembly.  It was issued to French soldiers during World War II.  This example is equipped with artillery sighting eyepieces and was made in 1940.

A.N.P. = "Appareil Normal de Protection = "Regular Protection Device"
Artillerie = "Artillery""
