Olive Drab #7 version of the WWII Assault vests, used briefly during the Normandy campaign. Made from water repellent #10 cotton duck, with all the details of the original. (Yes, we own one.) The assault vest was intended to replace the cartridge belt, suspenders and pack. The vest features grommets at the waist to attach canteens and first aid pouches, the entrenching tool was fastened to the upper rear flap (as on a Haversack), large upper and lower pockets at the rear for personal items, grenades pouches, and six cargo/ ammunition pouches.

The markings are professionally applied and the ink is heat cured for durability.

Sizing: These are properly oversized to allow them to fit over a field jacket. Simply order by your chest size. Made in USA with US materials and genuine Scovil and Stimpson hardware.
