Hi all, I've had this tool for around 20 years, picked it up in an Army surplus store. sorry I don't know how to take a pic and place it up but it's a stamped piece of metal with a flat blade screwdriver on one end and has 3 cutouts for open end wrenches on the other end, along with a swiveling pointed punch in the middle of it. I know someone here knows what weapon it was made for, Help me out please.

Does it look like this?

This is an M60 machinegun wrench for the gas piston tool with an attached reamer to clear carbon

Well my MOS was 16R, Crewman on the M163 Vulcan Air Defense Artillary, That's as close as I come to Aircraft. I've used this thing for years on numerous guns was always curious what it was actually made for. Thanks.
