The SDU-5/E light equips aircrew members and shipboard personnel with a high-intensity visual distress signal. The infrared filter and blue flash guard, contained in the SRU-31/P survival kit, are used in conjunction with the SDU 5/E light for signaling purposes in combat areas. The SDU-5/E is commonly called a strobe light. It emits a high-intensity flashing light. This light is visible for great distances at night.
My grandpa spent 6 yrs in the US Army, serving the majority, over in Vietnam. He passed yrs ago, so I can't ask about details. It's not like he'd give me much to go on anyway. He didn't talk about the war much.
It does have the name Neil w/ 1274 carved on the side, which is interesting. So, whoever is lucky enough to own this next may have a fun little treasure hunt ahead .
