Any thoughts please on what this U.S bag was made/used for. It is about 10" x 22". Made by the VICTORY CANVAS CO 1944. Someone has written in it over the years but overall very good condition . Thought it might be in the G.I book but no luck ....

Yes thats it a rocket bag. I believe the same bag or a similar one was also used for carrying 60 mm mortar ammo. Very nice it is in excelent condition.
