Great War truck Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Anybody recognise this shape of tent? Thanks Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeePig Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Is it an actual tent, or an inner tent to go inside another tent? It is just that those hoops on the top look like some kind of suspension system to try and prevent the inner from touching the outer tent side. trevor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broken arrow Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Not sure if it is military but i do remember boy scouts used this type of canvas tent in green and that the tape above was used tp help support a flysheet and keep it clear of the tent, now wait for someone to tell me i am a pillock and that i am compleatly wrong. :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony B Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Actually! A local Scout Group wanted a load of old canvas tents dumped, I volunteered! Because a lot of the tents were ex military, so I got half a dozen similar looking WD marked usable canvas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great War truck Posted March 18, 2014 Author Share Posted March 18, 2014 Thanks. I have not seen anything quite like this before. There are no WD markings on it so maybe it is a scout one or similar. Anyway, thanks for your input. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
