Peter..
I doubt very much that this is military..
It is a civilian kidney belt ,common with ridgid frame motor cycle riders from the '50's and '60's..
Made by local non commercial leather worker..
Common enough when I started riding in that era,but not seen today as much with the soft tail bikes these days...
Rob is right..The smilies keep changing positions and the "Support our troops "
smilie is now missing ,which was there on a posting I did a few minutes ago...
