US WWI Officers Leather Bottomed Canvas Haversack, Identified, Medical Corps Officer
Item #64174 : Original era manufacture. Khaki canvas haversack, which must have been the inspiration for the M1936 Musette Bag. Russet Brown leather reinforced bottom, and leather securing straps. Complete with a detachable shoulder strap. Identified to LT A.J. Weigan MC. Dated 1918. Doing a quick search on Ancestry, I find listings for a Lt. (later Captain) J.A. Weigan who served in the Medical and Veterinary Corps. Might have been an error when the stenciling was done.
