My P-38 is the one I got from my first box of C's in that place Harry worked for an unknown unit
finding bodies.

My p-38 got lost years ago. Never got anymore. I see you can get cheap ones in eBay in a 6pack.

Nah...


Anyone who knew a GI in the 60s always had plenty. I still have some
50+ year old P-38s. My old roomie (marine) had accumulated a cigar box
full and he was handing them out all the time. It is still a handy
tool. I am not sure what grade of steel they are but I have never bent
one trying to get a screw out. I wish my screwdrivers were that tough.
