Description: | Remnant from a First World War period German soldier's haversack. This section cut from a German soldier's 'brotbeutel' (literally, 'bread bag'), bears the stamp of the issuing 'Bekleidungsant' (clothing department). The number of this department is the same as that of the Army Corps in which it was issued, thus BA XV indicates that this haversack was issued to a soldier from a regiment raised in the Strassburg area.
cloth section cut from soldier's haversack with the markings: 'B.A. XV', '1915' and 'JR188'.
