Looks great and I'd love to see better and more photos, I also have lots of USMC junk in my junk pile (sorry anything in my collection I call junk) I'm short a helmet cover though so they are always nice to see. I can show you how to better your pack if you wish?

that would be great if you could help with the pack and i can get more photos tomorrow if you have something specific. i have the m1945 pack which doesnt gowith these suspenders so in the future i would like to get an earlier pack.

Here's a few old shots I made up a few years ago with the pack just short a couple of correct roll straps! USMC did use WW1 stock and Army stock

A great branch-specific collection. Great stuff.

It would look better if you have these following U.S.M.C. kits on the mannequin (Optional) :

Jungle Medic Pouch

Wire Cutter w/ Case

what kind of pack is this? i only have a top half and on the back the straps are put on to look like you would wear it like a normal backpack but are much to tight to fit on
