Had a dig through the attic this morning and found this lot which hasn't been out for a while. Mainly issued in the 80's but there's some 90's stuff in there too. Arctic Bergen with it's white cover, Mk2 arctic sleeping bag (with it's woolly liner & snow cover) and a pair of snow shoes with Alico ski boots still in them!
" />
I still rate these doss bags as the best, bulky but an excellent bit of kit, I've still got my 58 maggot too and would rather use it instead of the modern day equivalent.

" />
Arctic Bergen, probably the most uncomfortable thing you can put on your back...
" />
" />
Markings on the Bergen belt.
" />
Markings on the inside of the Bergen lid.
" />
" />
The contents of the Bergen.
" />
And lastly a nice vest .
