U.S. Army Khaki Shaving Kit

Details

Title U.S. Army Khaki Shaving Kit
Description This U.S. Army Shaving kit was manufactured by the Gillette Company and contained a safety razor and replacement razor blades for soldiers to carry in the field. A.E.F. Service Members were required to maintain a clean and well-kept appearance even during heavy fighting. Although some commanders may have relaxed these rules, many strictly enforced them, requiring soldiers to have a shaving kit at the ready for upcoming inspections.
