    U.S. Army M1A2

    US M1A2

    The U.S. M1A2 Service Gas Mask was made of molded rubber covered in stockinette.  The air from the hose was directed across the eyepieces, helping to defog the lenses with each inhalation.  These masks were made at Edgewood Arsenal, Maryland in 1937 and declared obsolete in 1944.
