Combat Pack Lightens Load On U.S. Marine's Back

Item

To take the heavy load off the back of the U. S. marine, a new method of pack suspension has been adopted, replacing the World War I “heavy marching order” and combat pack. The new pack rides high on the shoulders where it causes less fatigue to the back. Included in the pack are two canvas sacks, one replacing the haversack and the other having space for extra clothes and other articles.
