What would this have carried?Anyone know?Its kaki cloth coverd metal pouch.
I think its British or Canadian. But I don't know what it may be for.
Thanks Jerry I appreciate it,I thought maybe binocular case?Looks like would fit on web belt?
Binocs would make sense, or some other type of optical sighting device (mortar sight, etc)
Thanks Jerry,how did you know it was British?Andy militarynut thinks it was to put bandages,salve ,medical supplies etc in.
The used that type of canvas and the sort of odd hook configuration, on their web gear. but you also see Israeli and other former colony armies using similar styles kit.
1st aid would make sense too, as you wouldn;t want glass vials etc to get crushed
Probably something very valuable, like cigarettes
