This metal plate came from a USA trench in Salerno battlefield. Can be a mirror? Do you never see one similar in equipment of soldiers? Thanks.

They used mirrors on sticks to look out of the trench... like a periscope.

I believe this style was described as a shaving mirror, as here: Vintage WWII Air Corps US Army Shaving Mirror in Case | eBay
