    Entrenching tool cover

    My son in law got one of these carriers with a taiwan shovel a few weeks ago and gave it to me as he didn't need the cover. I'm trying to ID it and from the looks it appears to be a combination of US and Germanicon design which leads me to believe it is post war German manufacture. Some online sites also seem to confirm this but I'm not positive that's what it is and what shovel would go in it. A US shovel or a German shovel. It has the US style brass hangers on the back and is a mix of canvas and leather.
