Field Pack
NSN : 8465-66-026-2269
This is the "big pack" carried by all Australian combat troops on patrol in South Vietnam. It was used to carry all the Digger's equipment. It was attached with quick release clips so that on contact with the enemy packs could be dropped, leaving only the basic webbing and bum pack. This allowed quick movement. Issue used throughout the 70's and into the early 80's made from water resistant canvas and holds approximately 40 litres.
400 x 340 x 150mm
2 compartments
