Congratulations! I remember my first MkVii, now I have 2!

I have a WPG replica - just as good, in terms of usage. Or so I'd like to think.

But congrats on getting the real deal! Excellent! Bravo! Good form, Jack!

In Christ,

Congrats, Kris!

Be careful- getting a real MkVII for me started something that has me now collecting WWII stuff... I've just got an M1-C helmet... oh dear.

Enjoy it, man!

Great, Kris!

Did it come with the stripe or did they manage to dig up an unmarked for you?

Pics!

In essence, the definition of beauty.

Did you find any stamps on it?

Congrats!

Stinky, ain't it?

I'm finding mine to be really, really handy, what with all the pockets it has. I've since put a leather ..uhm... purse strap on mine.

But it's close enough for me and the brass buckle sits in the right place on my chest when I wear it.

Man I can't wait to get me one of these. Just imagine the looks I'll get from college students when I'm carrying my books around in an Indy style gas mask bag! Holy smoke, yours looks good Kris. Awesome find

Well, on mine, the stamp is shown on the inside flap. From your pic, I don't see it.

What's the NAWOODCOCK? Was that your doing or the soldiers?

N. A. WOODCOCK seems to be the original owner

One of mine had "Berryman" written on it. Wonder if that's the feller from "The Hills Have Eyes" movie.
