Details
Originally designed for use by mountain troops, these rucksacks were later used widely by regular troops and came to form part of the standard Wehrmacht marching equipment. The removable straps allowed the rucksack to be optionally fitted with an A-frame or Y-straps. Many period examples were modified or repaired with use of rifle slings taken from the battlefield.
