Picked up a mix of stuff recently from a guy and this bag was in with it. I was suprised at all the info I found on this guy.

I do too. I still have and use the one I was issued in the Air Force. People like to use their fancy luggage, but I have been using my old flight bag for decades..

The one I have I got at an outdoor swap meet 20 years ago. I use it almost every time I fly as it will carry everything I need for a week.

and the neat thing is they have not changed much over the decades...gone are the inside pockets...but construction remained unchanged....sometime in the late 80's, I think, they switched to nylon...great bags....

I have a few WWII bags in tan and one in OD..no named bags though....

 

the rest are all modern types

I was rooting through the ole stash yesterday, looked down at this bag and saw a big number 70 on the end of the bag. The color of the number looks almost like the color of the bag. Don't know how I missed that when I first checked the bag out.

 

Anyone know what that number 70 means ?

 

Thanks in advance!
