      It is a souvenir cigarette case.

      Probably a WW2 souvenir from a pilot or soldier who served in the China Burma India (CBI) theater. Did you grandfather serve in WW2?

      I BELIEVE HE DID...IS THE CASE SILVER OR STEEL AND WHAT DOES THE MARKING STAND FOR? THANKS FOR THE INFO

      I am not familiar with the markings.

      Most that I have seen are not silver-- I cannot tell with yours.
