With a flash that can be seen
for up to 100 miles, the signal mirror has been
called the most under rated survival tool in a survival
kit.
Three men stranded on a frozen
pinnacle of ice were rescued after a passing
ship noticed a flash on the distant horizon - a
flash from a signal mirror hanging from an
unconscious man's neck. "Never underestimate the value
of a signaling device." This of course includes a signal mirror.
The Military Approved Glass Signal Mirror is
a valuable daytime means of visual
signaling. Even on overcast days, this signal
mirror can be used effectively to obtain rescue.
You can't be rescued if you can't be found.
Every military survival kit is
required to include a signal mirror and all
personnel are trained to use one. The majority of the general public possesses
only limited understanding of the value of a
signal mirror and its ability to save lives.
The Signal Mirror is
one of the most versatile pieces of outdoor
equipment you can add to your survival gear.
Whether attracting the attention of another
hunter or rescuer several ridge lines away or applying
camouflage face paint, the Glass Signal mirror offers superior performance and reflectivity.
Survival experts worldwide agree
that no person should venture into the
woods, travel off-road, board their
boat or plane, or engage in any outdoor activity without a signal mirror and a
whistle, two extremely necessary survival signaling devices. |
Best results with the MIL-M-18371E, Military Glass Signal Mirror are achieved when the air is clear
and the sun is well above the horizon.
However,
visible signal flashes can be created even on
hazy or overcast days. Signal flashes can
be seen even when you cannot see the
aircraft, boat, or other means of rescue. So
when signaling and no specific targets are in
sight, be sure to continually sweep the horizon
with the signal mirror to maximize your chances of being seen.
At night, flashlights,
headlights, and moonlight can produce effective
signals with your Military Glass Signal Mirror.
While the Military Issue Glass Signal Mirror is a
state-of-the-art mirror, it also is a practical,
multipurpose outdoor tool. Use it around camp
for shaving, to apply makeup or camouflage, or
for even inserting contact lenses.
Use the Military Glass Signal Mirror, MIL-M-18371E, NSN 6350002619772, as a silent
communications tool to signal an outdoor
companion, or for looking around corners or into
tight spaces. Use it for emergency signaling to
send a pinpoint flash to a rescue plane, vehicle, or search party.
Though there are many choices in Signal Mirrors, be sure to consider that the Military Glass Signal Mirror is more reflective than plastic, has been battle tested over the years and best of all, is Made in the USA. |
