Default Re: My trips to the Hurtgen forest

The gas mask is in fantastic condition. It appears that it is a size 2 (medium) and the code byd indicates it was manufactured by Drägerwerk, Heinr. u. Bernh. Dräger, Gasschutzgeräte, Lübeck, Schles.-Holstein.
The partially visible WaA code on the mask is 533, this was the factories assigned inspection stamp number.
