USMC Officers’ bag.
The Boyt Canvas Company, known for its rugged and dependable military gear, produced a unique officer’s bag for the United States Marine Corps that bore a striking resemblance to the standard-issue U.S. Army musette bag. This Marine Corps variant retained the general shape and compact utility of the musette bag, favored for its manageable size and adaptability. Constructed from heavy-duty canvas with reinforced stitching, it was well-suited to the demands of field and administrative duties alike. The bag featured a classic flap-over design secured by metal buckles and offered just enough internal capacity for maps, orders, personal items, or even small field tools—ideal for an officer who needed to travel light but remain organized.
