Its a Tent! Its a Poncho! Its a Ground Sheet! Its a Camouflage against the enemy. My word, its even a waterproof sleeping bag! It is not, however, German.

I have been thinking about doing a San Marco / X Mas, and found these. I have been told that they are Italian and was wondering if they would work for the impression?

I think someones already answered this on the CS forum. They have a British look about them, or are post war Italian.
