U.S. Aircrew 'blood chit' or simply 'chit', on heavy card stock that could be folded and inserted in pockets . When an aircrew was shot down over Soviet occupied territory during WW2, the crew members could pull these chits out of their pockets and present them to Soviet troops in an effort to not be considered as Luftwaffe crews which was occasionally a reason for being 'dispatched' on the spot. Size: 9-3/8" x 7-1/2". New.
