British Army Early PLCE Water Bottle Pouch Cold War Era type 89 RR

British Army Early PLCE Water Bottle Pouch – Cold War Era Type 89

A genuine piece of Cold War-era British military kit, this Early PLCE (Personal Load Carrying Equipment) Water Bottle Pouch is a Type 89 pattern piece from the transitional period when the British Army moved from the older 58-pattern webbing to the modern PLCE system. Marked "RR" and built to MoD specifications, this pouch is both a functional field item and a collectible piece of British military history.
