An excellent example of the WW2 British General Service Respirator

1 x GSR Gas Mask 1 x Anti-Dimming Kit 1 x Ointment Anti Gas

1 x Gas Goggles

The General Service Respirator (GSR) featured a hose connected to the filter and provided more facial coverage. It was designed to allow the wearer to withstand heavy concentrations of gas for long periods and to give the wearer the greatest possible freedom of movement and comfort.

When worn the haversack was worn high on the chest and was connected to the facepiece via a corrugated rubber tube. The eyepieces were made of unsplinterable glass, and there was a special outlet valve designed to allow audibility of speech.
