The "cut off Aux straps"

[Daniel.S]

From time to time we see ystraps for sale with missing aux straps.

Ive had a hard time finding pictures of those being worn, yet the argument is always that soldiers themself cut the off. ( i do belevie in this though)

Here is an interesting one...anyone got more to share?

Here one of the same man by the looks of it & another who looks to have removed the auxiliary straps

The rough looking panzer man, lower down has also a dress bayonet & broken awards sewn on as posted by someone on here a while back.

Yes, and he has one strap still attached, and a short piece of the other one - which looks broke of rather than cut...

Wow, what a killer pic, one can really see he even removed the rivets.

Thank you Arthur!

Well, you have to acknowledge that this aux straps are unnecessary and even irritating if you do not use A-frame or backpack on a daily basis.
