turmanator Posted June 11, 2015 Share #3 Posted June 11, 2015 I've personally never seen one. But I'm a bit of a newb (compared to some other guys on the forum)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
63 RECON Posted June 11, 2015 Share #4 Posted June 11, 2015 Yeah that's cool, I actually never knew we made US webgear in ww2 (or maybe I did and just forgot) Is the strap Aussie made? Cool how it has US style fittings as you'd think it would have 37 pattern style fittings Still that's really nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pudgy (V) Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share #5 Posted June 11, 2015 The strap was made in 1943 by the Froehlich co. I believe it is US made, not 100% sure though. Thanks Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panzerbait Posted June 11, 2015 Share #6 Posted June 11, 2015 That's an interesting piece. Is it made in the British/Commonwealth type of canvas web like you see in the large and small packs? Hard to tell from the photos. Very cool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pudgy (V) Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share #7 Posted June 13, 2015 I have an American USMC made pack, and it seems to be very similar. I don't have a British pack to compare it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
