      SP1 probably means specialist 1st class. My guess is that it fits on a camera & the gear is for a focus mechanism. If that is a wire I see? if so, probably for running a motor for the gear to focus. Who knows what governments waste money on? Why am I writing this as I know nothing about cameras!!

      There is or was a company named Breeze Eastern in Union, NJ that bid on government military contracts. It is possible that there was a name change from Breez to Breeze or perhaps this was a misprint that was rejected and someone took it home. Researching the company and their government contracts would be a good starting point.
