Chris Boonzaier Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 Bing made an early version of the backpack with a metal frame. I have been told that they originally had canvass straps, but this came with leather... as the straps clip in and clip out quite easily, I assume that at some stage someone replaced them.... maybe a collector, or maybe they simply did not hold up in the field.... This is 1915 dated to the 20th Infantry Regiment....
