Strange material P37 type Large Pack, ideas?
I just got this pack last weekend, and it’s a bit of a strange one.
It’s made of thin material instead of the normal thick webbing, similar to the
"Ersatz" material seen on some types of straps, but not as stiff, and single layered instead of the actual strap bits, and those don’t have the inner stiffener seen in the regular Ersatz straps.
The only markings are a broad arrow with WB under it, and a faded 4 which might have been someones ID number.
There might be something after the B, but it’s not very visible.
It looks very old, so not some recently made thing, and has usage marks.
What I’m wondering is where does this fit into the webbing series and why it’s this material, and if it’s British or from any of the other commonwealth states.
