mikie Posted February 16, 2019 Share #1 Posted February 16, 2019 I found these 2 Light gas mask bags side by side in a bin at a long gone surplus shop. I've seen millions of these bags with the light color material like the one on the right. But never saw a dark green one like the one on the left. I decided to buy them both once I looked inside and saw the markings. Same date, same company. The only difference in the markings is that the dark bag is printed in red. I posted this bag on a sadly also long gone forum asking if anyone knew why these were made in the dark material, and everyone there was stumped. Never seen one before either. There was plenty of guesswork, but nobody knew. So figured I'd ask here and see if anyone knew why the one was made with dark color. Guesswork welcome here too. Just and odd mystery to have fun with. Thanks. Enjoy! Mikie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edstorey Posted February 17, 2019 Share #2 Posted February 17, 2019 Perhaps the dark green one was for the jungle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikie Posted February 17, 2019 Author Share #3 Posted February 17, 2019 Yes, jungle use was the best theory at the other site. Just strange that nobody else had seen this before? Mikie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
