Up for auction is a used, good condition USAAF / USAF H-2 Emergency Bailout Bottle with strap on carrying pouch. This type of small oxygen tank was commonly used by high altitude USAAF reconnaisance fliers during WWII. The end of the H2 hose would attach to the flier's oxygen mask via a 90 degree " L" fitting to the mask . This item was not exactly the easiest thing for me to locate for my USAAF collection. This one may actually be a post WWII H-2 assembly, although it is most likely identical to the WWII USAAF model. The black rubber hose has no dry rotting and is flexible. If you're like me and unable to track down one of those HARD-TO-FIND little "L" fittings, one could probably be scratch built using some of the USAAF gear books as a guide. I will accept personal checks, money order, bank / certified check, or PayPal. Shipping within CONUS should run about $ 12.00 and I ship out insured once payment clears. Payment due within 10 days of auction close. Thank you for looking.
