A beautifully gilt Eared Dagger with an intricately carved bone grip, Italy, ca. 1520, housed at the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana.
The text which can be seen on the dagger's ears is the second verse of Psalm 31 (30), which reads IN TE DOMIN[E] SPERAVI / ET NON CONFUNDAR IN [AETERNUM] “In thee, O Lord, have I hoped, let me never be confounded”.

In this case the Small Box Respirator, probably the most iconic British if not Entente gas mask design of the war. While looking different to the more modern looking German and later French counterparts, it is also a canister design like them, with the canister being connected to the mask by a long hose from a chest carry bag.
Australian soldiers wearing respirator gas masks, Ypres, September 27, 1917
