Pictured is the M1928 haversack. I've added the 1945 dated shoulder straps to make the pack more comfortable to use. These things consist of flaps and straps, so they're not very practical for carrying things. They were deliberately designed this way so soldiers wouldn't carry a lot of extra gear into combat with them.
