Kia kaha Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted November 2, 2021 Mark the net is New Zealand made it is a piece of what we call “sweat rag” or scrim. Soldier’s would be issued a section of this cut from a roll, if you had a good Company Quartermaster you got a metre if not you might get a foot. Still issued today and still only in Dark green.(although I do Have a section in a sand colour with a Sniper Guillesuit.) Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
