This new book is the companion volume to Glenn's 2006 "United
States Marine Corps Uniforms, Insignia, and Personal Items of World
War II" (see page 57 of this catalog). With numerous rare and never
before published war time photographs, "782 Gear" is the most
in-depth pictorial study of the many patterns, and variations of
Marine Corps field gear - known then as "782 Gear" - that U.S.
Marines carried in the Pacific War. The author also visited the
island battlefields he's written about and conducted field
endurance tests with original Marine Corps gear to give the reader
a more complete understanding of how each piece of equipment
endured the rigors of combat. With this unprecedented level of
research, "782 Gear" is, along with its companion volume, the World
War II Marine Corps collector's guide book and bible.
