Two Wicker Panniers......

[Martin Bull]

I've always liked the look of those German wicker artillery panniers, but have never got around to getting any. Just picked up these two rather rough ones. The one with dividers is for the le IG 18 7.5cm light infantry gun ; the one without dividers I believe could be a late-war type for carrying three 8cm Gr W 34 bombs.







Unfortunately, there are no labels, but there's a clear Waffenamt on the base of the earlier example....



These weren't expensive, and I'm glad to have them because they have ( in my imagination, at least ) a rather 'Jager in the Caucasus' feel to them.

Looking through my stuff, I've come across this..




I always enjoy finding images of equipment in contemporary field use.

Always thought you were a bit of a basket case mate.

But did find this picture in my collection that shows some baskets.
