"Haversack" is typically the name given to a backpack-style bag that features a single shoulder strap. These bags got their name from their original intention of carrying "havercake," a staple food made from oats and water that is baked into a biscuit.
As noted, each German flecktarn haversack offered by Keepshooting.com is an authentic German military surplus item. These haversacks were originally designed for and used by service men and women enlisted in the German heer, or army, which is one of the five service branches that makes up the Bundeswehr, or unified armed forces of Germany. Interestingly, these haversacks serve as a singular component of the German LKS load-bearing equipment system, which includes a variety of packs, pouches and holsters that are designed for attachment to the LKS webbing belt and is similar in nature to the United States' All-Purpose Lightweight Individual Carrying Equipment, or ALICE, system.
