    I don't see a size marked...the one I know of here is exactly the same. It's a size of very small stature.

    They wouldn't be of much use only holding two though...the #2 had a chest of ten and the men all had one or two. I'll bet they were a flash idea that sat in crates until disposal.

    My example would seem to be designed to fit a slim person.

    I wonder if most of the left over examples held in storage after the war were the small sized ones?
