Opmerkingen

Military unit scrip of this type — issued by a sergeants' club rather than any fiscal authority — functioned as internal canteen or mess currency, redeemable only within the unit's own economy. The 16th Signal Operation Battalion was a U.S. Army signals unit active during the Second World War, and clubs of this kind issued "spirit vouchers" to control alcohol purchases, prevent hoarding, and keep transactions off the books of the formal military supply system.

Survival rate for ephemera of this sort is low. Most were redeemed and discarded, or simply lost in the chaos of demobilization after 1945.
