Capture papers?? Whats that?

For those members who have never seen capture papers this photo shows some examples of what they look like. The upper photo is almost clear enough to read... I put text where the form would be filled in for those that are worried about forged papers... and the lower photo shows a real life example of a capture paper for a P-38 pistol...

I have seen typewritten letters written by commanders that contain much the same information, but the unit was obviously out of the forms when the GI requested one...
