  • This is how i pack my haversack when i go to re-enactments and is as close as i can get it to the field manual regulations also keep in mind i keep some of the things in the small bag of personal items in my gas mask bag. Remember they extensively used them to carry some of their stuff. I personally carry some personal items, my rain poncho, shaving kit, toiletries, journal, cards, sharpening stone, spare parts roll and sewing kit in my gas mask bag.

    awesome video kid, i can tell you are fairly young by your voice but i think it is absolutely awesome you have such an interest and knowledge in ww2 era field gear and have an appreciation for it like i do. i am almost 27 and for the past 5 or 6 years ive been collecting ww2 era firearms and been studying and watching ww2 movies etc. and every time i buy a surplus rifle i try to buy all the accessories for them. and since buying my all time favorite "greatest battle implement ever devised" m1 Garand i bought the m1923 cartridge belt for it and been slowly adding on to it.. So soon i hope to have a nice original haversack like yours. Great video and happy collecting and enjoying history!!!!

    Great video. Good work for reading the manual. I think you might already realize, that what the manual has the soldier carry and what the soldiers actually carried are completely different......especially in action and in the field. Soldiers habitually throw away many items to reduce their load and somehow manage to get by.

    Dinty Moore is a brand name of canned goods. SHould be at your market. Kinda look like C rats with the label removed. Cost a couple of bucks and you can eat it right out of the can. There are repro C rat cans, just as the repro K rat boxes.but you would have to research them for cost etc.

    • @pmbrenner91

      Then you're wearing it properly. It was supposed to fit everyone, and in designing it for the purpose, it fit no one.

    • @johnjones5891
      @johnjones5891 10 лет назад +3

    • @pmbrenner91
      @pmbrenner91 10 лет назад +2

      Well, reenactors want everything to fit perfectly. That usually means that they wear their clothes too baggy and some other things. But I'm fairly certain that they just don't fit some bodies.... I have the same problem with mine (but probably to a lesser degree).

      Depends what you mean by cheap. If you're going to be doing reenacting, that's unfortunate. They don't run "cheap" at all. You're looking at AT LEAST $1200, i.e www.gunbroker.com/item/571227999. If you're only doing living history type things, you can get replicas real cheap that don't function, i.e www.hessenantique.com/M1_Garand_p/hausor22-1105.htm
