9mm for Tropical Use

[Vlim]

Here is a German 9mm box you don't see every day.
It was produced and packaged for use in tropical conditions. The iron core bullet recieved an extra protective laquer seal around the base of the bullet and the case material is brass, rather than steel.

The label reads 'Pistolenpatronen 08 m. E. (Tp)'.

Headstamps are dnf * 3 43.

The joker on the photo probably carried these in his P38.
