Lightweight Rucksack Instruction Sheet

Today, I removed the sewn in instruction sheet out of my Lightweight Rucksack and copied it. I had been selling the original instruction sheets that show pictorialy how to put the rucksack together, but had a lot of request to have the folded, sewn in instruction sheet made, so I did it today. I needed to print more of the loose sheets, so after done with that mission, I reproduced the folded instruction sheet.

The folded cloth instructions were about 13" long, so I had to reduce the repro to about %92 to get it to fit on a 8 1/2" X 11" piece of paper. I used a ivory linen paper as the base. I will be putting them up for sale in the for sale section soon if you are looking for one. I tried to find a solid cotton, but there was none to be found that would work in a copy machine. I will have these for sale in the For Sale section.

My pictorial instructions must be a later version published in response to the decline in literacy as the army lowered their standards during the Vietnam draft.

What you have is the initial instructions with pictures, which usually get thrown away after the ruck was put into service. What I have displayed here is the folded instructions that are permanently attached inside the instructions pocket. The instruction sheet you show, I have also reproduced and have for sale in the "FOR SALE" section
