This is a WWII era US Army Model 1923 rifle belt, such as an infantryman might wear. Each of those pockets held an 8-round M1 rifle cartridge clip.
I love WWII military stuff, even the B17 flying fortress. I have some old stuff I will post. The snaps on this belt are definitely WWII, snaps are a dead give away for much military gear. Early stuff is stamped. Nice. ;)
yup, WWII US infantry cartridge belt. sells for around $45.00 to $75.00 depending on condition.....the little holes at the bottom of belt were used to hang other items: canteen, bayonet, shovel, wire cutters, etc.....
