    GPW webbing Yokes

    Comrades ,
    Has anyone got good pictures of the early GPW webbing yoke that was used in the opening battles of the Fascist invasion of Mother Russia...
    I have pictures of the front, it looks like 2#MN slings but its the back Y strapping, how is it joined, was it woven as a piece?, or several pieces sown together,? what was the rear belt loop like?, I think it was nonadjustable going on the poor pictures I have....
    Many Thanks for your Time .

    Is it a yoke or is it the M36 backpack which looks like a German tornister?
