These are often referred to as a TAP (Troupes AéroPortées = Airborne troops) item, but I found one mention on a French forum that they were a TTA Piece of equipment. TTA (toutes armes/modèle général) refers to an item that is used by all arms, eg being the general model and not specifically used by one branch of service.

Physical Description

Made from olive drab Nylon.It originally contained various tablets, small dressings, tourniquets, etc.

Dimensions are: 13 x 10 x 4 cm.

History note Category

For the Indochina and Algerian war periods you will often see II/48 written here. In later years you will encounter II/85, and I believe III/93 as the design and contents of the pouch was changed/modified.

From research the II/48 marking indicates the type of contents (class II) and the year (1948) that the contents were chosen/approved for use.

Version III/93 was distributed until the 2000s for any departure on OPEX. It contains various tablets, small bandages, tourniquet etc...
