You are offerding on a VERY RARE SETUP : 1 U.S.ARMY TENT, (2 X HALF TENTS (Pup Tent) SHELTER 1942 WWII . Each U.S. soldier carried a half shelter ( 1/2 ). two shelters would be joined up to form a tent. Good used condition . NO TEARS! One button missing is all I found… and it really dies t affect the tent at all. AMAZING, well kept condition!!
THERE ARE 10 WOOD PEGS AND 2 POLES INCLUDED WITH THE TENTS THAT APPEAR ORIGINAL! One pole is broken where it cone ts to the other half, but still works if you just jam it into the slot as we did when setting tent up. We’re not finger soldiers so please forgive our effort in setting up the tent as we did the best we could.
(All canvas cotton, original old rope is included as well ) Neat old piece of history that still will give you great shelter as a camper or boy/Girl Scout!
