Thanks to everybody for their help so far. SteveS- would be curious to see what your son has to say. E-chick- thanks for digging up some old board info. Air tight is right! Plus, I imagine one of these could hold up to about 50 cigars (once lined and humi is placed). To Eleltea- don't we all wish we would've saved some of the stuff that seemed irrelevant years ago. Whenever I happen upon some piece of memorabilia I once possessed that is selling for $$$, it makes me want to become a garbage collector. Of course, my wife ain't gonna hear of that...LOL.
Interesting note; these boxes might be a little older than I thought. Maybe some ex/current military folks can help me with white stamped letters on the front of the box. It reads: 8-Fuze Proximity M728, Lot FCI-I-7A, Loaded 1-69. Might these be Vietnam era boxes? Not important, in terms of cigar storage, but nice-to-know stuff.
