GERMAN WWII PARATROOPER CANISTER PACKING MANUAL.

Military Mode Publishing have published a copy of this very rare manual, this is the totally original version, copy number ‘1614’ dated ‘April 1942’. 284 pages of text and excellent black and white photographs showing the various methods used by the German Luftwaffe in the packing and transportation of the paratroopers combat weapons and equipment by air. An excellent object of research material for the paratrooper collector. Recently purchased from probably the best combat uniform and equipment collection in the United Kingdom comprising Army tropical, Waffen SS, Luftwaffe paratrooper and many other items of the same genre. The collection was begun by the then 15 year old boy who used to visit our own shop in London in the very early 1980’s and has built this collection up over 40 years culminating in the writing of excellent books on these subjects.
