    Carrying a Zeltbahn

    Hi everyone, I have recently acquired a sweet splinter-pattern zeltbahn and am having trouble folding it "properly" as a soldier would for carrying with their field gear. I have seen several pictures of it being worn below the mess kit (such as on Peter's website: http://www.germanmilitaria.com/Heer/21MessItems.html) and have browsed our fellow member's site http://www.zeltbahn.net/index.htm.

    Unless I've overlooked it, I haven't seen anything on how to fold for this. Can anyone provide me some info or a url where I can find this?

    I'm a little embarressed to ask a question this simple, but when I started folding the zelt this afternoon, I realized I had no clue on how to really do it.

    Anything will be appreciated! Thanks!!

    Hi Ken, a very good question actually. Many people struggle with this, and as a reenactor I have seen it done many ways. You did miss it on the one website, here is the direct link. http://zeltbahn.net/fold.htm

    Here is another website with somewhat different directions I think. I prefer this second method. http://www.pnwhg.org/12thss/images/manual/zelt.htm

      Thanks so much for the links. I had seen the first one, but it stopped after folding it into a square and that was where I was left trying to figure it out. You're right on that second link, it looks to be those next steps I was needing. Thanks again for the help!
