Garfield, Good discription of the German Soldiers bread bag! During WW1 loaves of bread were a staple and the soldier would be issued either a whole or a portion of a loaf to last a certain time. THe bread bag was his storage place for this and other rations issued. German bread at the time is not what you might imagine. Dense and hard, rye or black. Roadkill could probably discribe it a little better. I think his German born Wife has a shop where she bakes German bread. Wish I had some! Jerry Burney
