Walkabout
Horse blanket? Check. A thin olive drab woolen blanket with tabs and press studs down 3 sides. Did I mention this blanket was really thin?
Silk? Check. A jungle green polyester bag with a press stud closure halfway down one side and a plethora of loops on the inside to accept the tabs on the horse blanket. It's not even remotely waterproof, but I guess it could be windproof.
When it's put together you end up with the silk on the outside of the folded blanket, acting as a cover.
This stuff is way before my time and I've never used it before, or seen it documented anywhere, but it seems like there are components missing - it wouldn't be a very warm sleep system with just the horse blanket and the silk. It's fiddly too.
Anyone got any ideas on how it works or what's missing to make it work?
