I was reading Doctor Strangelove trivia, and apparently as is said in the movie, survival kits really did have nylons in them. Why would they include those back then?

For a pretty good weekend in Vegas.
Could be part of a water filter or used as mosquito netting but it doesn’t hurt to have something worth trading if you end up in a populated area too. They’re lightweight, multi-purpose and valuable in the kind of place where a damaged bomber might make an unexpected landing.
Nylons would be too tight for mosquito netting.
But my first thought was a prefilter for water.
I don’t know how well this would work but was thinking that it could be stretched over a rigid structure or cut and sewn into useful places. If nylon stockings are what I have and mosquito netting is what I want, I’ll figure out a way to do it.
