A lot of it was based of the skeleton webbing I used during op herrick whilst employed as a section commander. The radio pouch lid I used during herrick as I employed my bowman on my right hand pouch for ease of access on the ground. The setup worked well for me but I can only remember myself using the radio in this set up. The Molle and rear pouches I had included for versatility across various environments so I could tailor it to how I needed my belt set up. The remainder was pretty standard as I like the place ammo pouch but had the grende pouches added for ease whilst room clearing on herrick / telic etc.’   Size, this set measures 24.5″ 22″ (65 56cm) from end to end along the top edge of the pad, second figure refers to length of belt fitted.

Various points of minor wear damage, external strapping on the WAS utility pouches is in poor condition, zips on these have passed their best Various previous user marks in paint and ink on the inside of the pad and yoke The set shown is the set you will receive Multiple views shown, contents for illustration only, single empty set supplied, all arms and munitions are inert
