    My dad was a WW2 and Korean vet and keep those P-38's around the house. I never personally used one.

    Update I just watched a video on Youtube on how to use one. Pretty cool.

    The P-38 (larger variant known as the P-51) is a small can opener that was issued with canned United States military rations from its introduction in 1942 to the end of canned ration issuance in the 1980s. Originally designed for and distributed in the K-ration, it was later included in the C-ration.
    It has also been used as a flat blade screw driver, a corner of it has been used in place of a Phillips screw driver as well...
