Remembered Today:

Bomber's apron

Recommended Posts

I came across reference to a bomber's apron in Giles Eyre's book, Somme Harvest.

I asusme that it was a multi-pocketed apron for carrying Mills bombs, but was it used for anything else?

Any photos of one?

Worn to prevent "Snagging" when throwing Bombs?????

Thanks Robert

Great photos.

I think that for 'apron' one should read 'waistcoat'. An apron as we would understand it now would surely be too cumbersome.
