Rare WWII Soldier heart shield bible The New Testament. 1943 pocket Bible

This pocket Bible is a wonderful piece of military history and a touching personal example of someone’s love. It shows a lot of external wear…which in this case I think its good thing. The front cover is a strong piece of steel. The front reads MAY THIS KEEP YOU SAFE FROM HARM. the card inside reads THE HEART-SHIELD BIBLE…fits snugly in the uniform pocket the engraved gold finished steel front cover protects his heart. 1943 KNOW YOUR BIBLE CO - cin’ti Ohio USA THE SHIELD AND NEW TESTAMENT the presentation is filled out HUGH W GASKILL WITH OCEANS OF LOVE AGNES there is some stress to the front board at binding but the book is sound with the expected wear of a piece of this age that was carried daily. Thanks for looking!
