I bought these at a yard sale a few months back. I collect old war stuff from various countries. I would love to know what these say on the labels. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Pictures are attached.

In each package, there are two pieces of sterilized gauze and a triangular bandage. (sorry but no point in translating everything here. It just tells you how not to tough the products directly with your hands.)
