AFG 1098 is a schedule of military stores held by a major, minor or sub unit, and compasses and binoculars etc were issued without a cases because they are technical equipment and the cases were part of the webbing equipment worn by officer & soldier. A Pistol holster & lanyard or rifle sling are other examples. A pair of binoculars would always be issued with a case to protect it when not in use,
A soldier was issued a uniform and personal equipment of AFG 1157 and a unit was scaled to a AFG 1098 or 1198 listing the special to purpose equipment from vehicles, personal weapons, radios and technical stores, these were generally issued to the soldier on AFG 1033 issue & receipt voucher.
AFG = Army Form General
