Rifleman_D Posted May 13, 2012 Share #1 Posted May 13, 2012 Hey everyone! I just picked this up at a garage sale yesterday.I think it may be a bed roll or sleeping bag of some sort but I have never seen one like this before. The tag is very hard to read but I can make out a date of 1925 (I think). Does anyone know what this is for sure? It has a HBT outer shell with a blanket like bag inside it with two little gray flaps near the top, also a bit of fabric that looks kind of like a built in pillow case or something similar. Any help is greatly appreciated, now on to the pictures... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Hudson Posted May 13, 2012 Share #2 Posted May 13, 2012 The 1925 date refers to the law which requires that label, so it could have been made anytime after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted May 13, 2012 Share #3 Posted May 13, 2012 I don't think it's military. But it could have been a private purchase. Darby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rifleman_D Posted May 13, 2012 Author Share #5 Posted May 13, 2012 Do you guys think this is Pre WWII, WWII or post WWII? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Flage Guy Posted May 13, 2012 Share #6 Posted May 13, 2012 Just judging from the white tag being the "self-destruct-when-washed" type, I'd say it was made either prior to or during the War. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
