Blood Chit — Your Ticket Home When Everything Goes Wrong Behind enemy lines with nothing but a Blood Chit and a prayer — it's worked before. The Blood Chit is one of the most iconi c survival items in military aviation history. Written in multiple languages, it identifies the bearer as an American service member and promises a reward to anyone who assists in their safe return. Blood Chits have been carried by aviators since World War II, through Korea, Vietnam, and into modern conflicts, serving as a last resort for downed aircrews in hostile territory. The tradition continues today as a powerful symbol of the bond between aircrew and the promise that their country will do everything possible to bring them home. Perfect For: Military aviation enthusiasts, survival gear collectors, aircrew members, and history buffs fascinated by escape and evasion traditions. Every aviator hopes they'll never need it — but every aviator carries one. Show more
