Many uniforms and accouterments cross over several time periods
or campaigns. Many items of kit were still being issued well after
newer patterns were manufactured. It is always safest to go with
an older bit of kit rather than a pattern not yet issued. The British
Board of Ordinance and later the War Department general
designated equipment "P" an the year of adoption.
