Grovetown Posted 4 May , 2015 Share Posted 4 May , 2015 Officer's bedroll or valise strap: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=valise+strap&rlz=1C1GGGE_en-gbGB475GB475&espv=2&biw=1366&bih=655&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=UidHVYqRNsWC7Qb20oDgAg&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAg&dpr=1#tbm=isch&q=bedroll+strap Actually, looking at the scale, it might even be a greatcoat carrier too. Something of that order. Cheers, GT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALDAWSON77 Posted 4 May , 2015 Author Share Posted 4 May , 2015 I thought the same. The strip at the top looks like a handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chasemuseum Posted 26 May , 2015 Share Posted 26 May , 2015 Unfortunately a private purchase rather than an issue item. Very similar straps were still being sold new in the disposal (camping) stores in Sydney in the 60s. Cheers Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
