Product Description
During World War II, British Eyeshields Anti-Gas were critical protective gear designed to safeguard soldiers from chemical warfare agents. These transparent shields, often made of cellulose acetate, covered the eyes and were worn over the gas mask to provide an additional layer of defense. They were part of the broader effort to protect troops from gas attacks, prevalent during the war. The eyeshields were lightweight yet sturdy, allowing soldiers to maintain visibility and mobility while ensuring their safety against toxic gases deployed by enemy forces.
