Original US Army M-1956 Suspenders (H-Harness) | Size Regular | Vietnam Era
Description
Gear that bore the weight of the war.
-
M-1956 System: Designed to distribute the heavy load of a combat-loaded pistol belt. The front snap hooks attach to the ammo pouches, while the rear hooks secure directly to the belt's grommets.
-
Padded Comfort: Features padded shoulders to prevent the webbing from digging in. The padding on this set shows the classic heavy wrinkling that comes from extensive use in a hot, wet environment.
-
"Salty" Condition: Heavily used. The OD green cotton canvas is beautifully faded. The blackened finish on the metal hardware has worn off, exposing the raw brass underneath. Everything is fully functional and undamaged. The "US" and "REGULAR" markings are still visible on the inside.
-
Size Regular: Officially designed for personnel up to 68 inches tall, but the fully adjustable web straps accommodate taller frames easily.
