I am starting this thread with a hope of seeing photos of tornister m34 and m39 in use.
I found only few and most lacking any detail.
Thanks !

The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )
1st July 1916
Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
Sounds good - can you please move it if possible - thank you !
One well known shot in Brian Davis' book.

I guess the only photos around would be barracks or parade ones as the tornister was not worn in combat ( and that's where the Signal cameramen were - to photograph the 'glorious' victories of the TR ) Later on, in the various retreats, the tornister would still have been at rear echelon areas - that's probably why so many have survived ( that plus the practicality of needing a haversack in a post war situation that did not display any TR insignia )
