Olive drab plastic-bodied flashlight with angled head and ribbed handle, fitted with a metal belt clip and rotating lens bezel. A sliding switch on the body controls the light, while a spring-loaded push button allows for manual flashing in Morse code signaling. The battery compartment opens at the base with a threaded cap, and the flashlight is designed to be clipped to a uniform or belt for hands-free illumination.
This type of angled flashlight was widely used by Allied forces during and after World War II, particularly under the U.S. designation TL-122 (and later MX-99/U). Its durable design, angled head, and signaling capability made it a standard issue piece of field equipment through the Korean and Vietnam Wars, and it remained common among Canadian and NATO troops during the Cold War period.
