<p>[QUOTE="KnutzKollect, post: 9744381, member: 20897"]I cannot seem to be able to find this exact Satchel anywhere on the net. Made of thick deep tan colored Canvas and all leather lined it measures 18 x 14 inches. it has two leather straps on back one being a later but still early replacement. it has two sectioned compartments inside I feel were made possibly for paperwork so maybe the Satchel Bag is for a Messenger? The Satchel on the front of the flap says, U.S. A. meaning U.S. ARMY and has a black arch on the bottom with a faint U.S. in the middle. when the flap is opened it says, U.S. A. JOHN N. HADZESS. C. K. 44. INF. Also there is an Inspectors Stamp that says, INSPECTED (twice) U.S. P.O.D. Need to know exactly what this Satchel is and its Date and what the writing means especially C. K. 44. INF. ect. Any Help would be Highly Appreciated! Gary K[ATTACH=full]477382[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]477383[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]477384[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]477385[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
