PACK-FIELD-M 1945

I'm in the process of donating some items to the 'Soldiers and Sailors Hall' of Pittsburgh, Pa.

I was wondering who all was familiar with this type of pack. This type (AKA the 1951 Combat Pack) was issued to me during basic training.

It includes: The combat pack
Shelter half
Blanket
Tent pegs
Entrenching Tool
Interior items:

Mess Kit
Spoon and Fork (a knife is usally included, but they have a habit of disappearing
Soap Container
Soap (Brown)
Shaving Brush
C Rations :
Ham Sliced w/Juices 5.5 oz
Peaches 8oz.
Cheese Spread Cheddar 37gr.
Sugar 6 gr.
Cream Substitute Non Dairy
Damp Climate Matches.
