WH (Heer) M44 Bread Bag

Description

Wehrmacht (Heer) M44 Bread Bag (Brotbeutel Modell 1944). Bread bags were widely utilized by all German military and non-military organizations, so various models and colors were produced. The bread bag was worn attached to the belt on the right side of the back. This is a late war produced simplified example as introduced in November 1944. The belt-hook in the middle has been replaced by a small belt-loop, both the left and richt belt-loop are now fixed loops as well. The main difference of this M44 example with the normal bread bags is the addition of a small compartment to hold the rifle cleaning kit. The breadbag is made of green coloured canvas and brown leather parts, the leather parts are a bit dry but all complete and present. The breadbag is not visible maker marked or dated. Nice and hard to find original late war breadbag in good used condition!
