Hoss Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Better pictures of the bag Chip was talking about in another thread. I bought because of the early stamps and thought it being something a soldier may suspend around his neck, I'm sure I've seen original pictures somewhere. Maybe I'm mistaken, is it a salzbeutel or something for personal paperwork? The salt ration bag I always assumed was a simple round piece of cloth tied with a short length of hemp cord, a disposable effect that's why they are so scarce. Opinions? Cheers
