Thanks Ed,

Comparing it to my other 37P webbing I see what you say. It's interesting as it came with a complete WS58 kit. The battle battery box is a perfect fit. I wonder if it's just coincidence or had these been adopted after the cancellation of the UK order and Zephyr hadn't produced enough? We do know the Canadian Army and the Navy used these into the 1950s.
