Hi I'd like some info on this backpack please, I believe it could be a pack from West Germany but thats a quess. Any certified verfification would be fantastic. I've included detailed pictures, one that includes the HUEWA branding on the buckles. Thanks

Wecome to the WMF, natbloc! You're correct, West German Bundeswehr.

Thanks alot for that. what Era would this rucksack be from then?,  is it rare?  Finally the harness like strap hanging down was that for going through your legs or attaching to some other kind of webbing i cant work it out?

In use as a Bundeswehr backpack until the late 1970´s/ early 1980´s. These Rucksacks are very common. They were worn on the back with standard shoulder Y-straps, I think your set is arranged the wrong way up.
