    Our military carries little sewing kits. Those treasures that you have I would love to have one. My uncle was killed in Belgium during WW2. It devastated my father's family. We as the next generation have felt it greatly. He was only 20 years old, just turned, newly married before he left for basic training, and only lived 2 or 3 months after joining. I wonder about those cousins whom my siblings and I and my other cousins never had the opportunity to meet and know. Your sharing about this just brought these thoughts to mind. I served for 23 years and to have one of the housewives used by our former soldiers would be so treasured.❤🥲

    Fantastic video as I was at a military collectable show and had my choice of 4 Canadian tri-fold housewives. I paid $10 but now wish I took one seller up on the offer of all 3 for $25. I picked the tan one that looked unused; it has original buttons, and maybe original safety pins/needles. I put these contents aside and instead I am putting in the contents of our 80's housewife as I plan to carry this as a useable kit. So going down: threads/darning yarn***needles/safety pins/thimble/threader/buttons***modern sticky patches/screen repair/small length of wire. I may even add in a war nickel after watching this video. I also own a German 2 pocket kit that had some contents and I added more of the carded darning yarn that is from German military (The same yarn in my Canadian kit).

      Thanks for reaching out! It's hard to identify without seeing it (if you want to send us photos you can at pottsgrovemanor@montgomerycountypa.gov) but if it looks like it is hand written on the back it's possibly the soldier's name. If it looks like it was printed/stamped it could be from the Kohler company--same one as the plumbing fixture company today--as they took on a wide variety of government contracts during the war years.

      @montgomerycountyparkstrailshs 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      What a great question that sadly does not have a simple answer! It's probably more than we think, but we cannot say for certain. There are some household clothing inventories that have 12-20 shirts/shifts, which are you 18th century underwear, and just as many stockings. So it would not be unreasonable to say possibly over 10 caps.
