The definitive book on US WW2 webbing and equipment is without a doubt
"Doughboy to GI" by Ken Lewis, isbn number 0-9521523-0-4
A few copies are still available from specialist booksellers.
Coincidentally, as I write, we are just finishing off the Authors website,
for his US WW2 Militaria business "Norman D Landing"
Hope this helps, NIGE
