Hey everyone, I reproduce all sorts of US military rations from WWI through vietnam.

I am currently looking for the dimensions of the WWII C ration accessory packet found later in the war. Could anyone provide me with a length and width of the package?

Thanks

Well I found some measurements and set about making some reproductions for our late WWII displays this afternoon. These started getting put into C rat boxes in late 1943, there seemed to be four major variations. Two packs had green or blue print, they contained water purification tablets, one set also had a can opener and another contained salt tablets instead of the water purification tablets.

I produced all four variations, if there is a version I missed let me know and tell me what you guys think of the repros!

Awesome repro's! Very nice job...my collection is limited to Vietnam c-rats and later. Can't afford the ww2 stuff...

Took me awhile to find this post again. Glad you were able to find what you were looking for, was going to post this pic so you could of at least used it for a reference for size.

Thought I would post a related photo I took of an accessory packet with 1945 C ration cans that I reproduced recently.

Really nice!!
