Default universal pouch set

Hi,
I took a peek at the Perth Regiment (re-enacted) and saw the image mentioned, however that is not exactly how the set is meant to be worn. The problem is in the design, the rear pouch slides on the girth strap (for want of a better term) which allows it to creep toward the left and tend to slide off the shoulder when the haversack is not carried. I have a manual -somewhere- that shows how it should be worn.
Cheers,
Dave

Default Primary Source Reference

Here is what the 1937 Pattern Web Equipment manual has to say. At no time is the term 'Bren Bra' used.
