WWII USMC Field Transport Pack

Hey all,

 

Trying to finish putting together my field transport pack (mid-late war). This is what I have so far. I still need an M1 with a USMC cover and a shelter half. If anyone has one they would trade now or sell in the future let me know.

 

The "shelter half" is actually a poncho with a wool blanket folded within it simply because I wanted the look of a field transport pack but don't have a shelter half yet.

John,

 

Nice display. Looks like I have a long way to catch up.

Thanks Spearhead, all in due time right? :)

Nice set up. I'm working on the same thing right now. I still need a 16" bayonet and a better knapsack. The knapsack I have is very faded and doesn't look right with the haversack I have. I lucked out and got a good deal on a camo shelter half awhile back.

I feel like the wear difference adds a good look sometimes, but to each his own. It is nice to have everything in matching condition though.
