The MX-991/U Flashlight aka GI Flashlight, Army flashlight, or Moonbeam from the TL-122 military flashlight series of 1937-1944 and is a development of the MX-99/U flashlight issued in 1963. Produced since the Vietnam era, the MX-991/U has been made by various contractors over the years, including GT Price, Bright Star,and Fulton Industries,MX-991/U flashlights currently issued to the United States Army and United States Marines are produced by Fulton Industries. The flashlight's signature right angle design has proved popular in civilian use. During the Vietnam era, an improved model was introduced, the MX-991/U. This flashlight used the nomenclature "FLASHLIGHT: Electric, Portable and Hand Lighting Equipment, 2-cell, w/ lamp and lens filter, w/o batteries, Type I Class A (21108) MX991-U" retaining the identical NSN 6230-00-264-8261. There are some differences in markings among the various contractors for the MX-991/U. Most Fulton and GT Price-produced units bear the stamp "U.S." above the model number, while this marking is sometimes absent on flashlights produced by USALite and Bright Star. In 1973, a change was made to the design incorporating a switchguard to prevent accidental operation of the on-off switch, and this modification appears on MX-991/U flashlights produced since 1975.One of these flashlight has the U.S., then we have the Commander Whistle with the lanyard comes in OD green
