Original 1941 French PILOT Flashlight

Original 1941 French flashlight. It shows some use and age but is still quite nice. It has a blue filter. The leather button tabs and belt loops are flexible but do appear to have shrunken a bit with age. It take the standard 4.5v battery common to German flashlights. It looks like the paint has been touched up in places, but this seems to have been done a long time ago.
