Isn’t that latest SBO the so called tactical vest?

wonderamazement SG

WW2? Anypics? Or do you mean the ones with lotsa holes along the belt?
And anyway.....do you ppl know where to find the supplier for military camo nettings???

bcoy SG

No - rightfully, there is no recall manning or ippt. However, you must clear your last ippt for that particular SAF work year, and it is possible for the unit to extend recall manning due to certain reasons. That's from my own experience.

Can you show us the WW2 type of SBO? I think i have seen before but not sure if thats the one you are refering to. Then we can see how much SAF have improve in the design of SBO over the years. Thanks Very Happy

Manager433 SG

I try to post a pic tomorrow. Its in my store room. My SBO is the early type: front got 2 ammo pouch, back got 2 for water bottle pouch. That all. If this is not WW2 SBO then I dunno wats this is.

Mr. Green

decepticon25 SG

i think its called the "engineer sbo" 2 x m16mag pouches (1 pouch can fit 4 M16 mags)
2x waterbottle pouch and current sect comd bag attached behind. The belt its self got holes to hook up the shoulder straps which uses a "hook" device which can be locked. additional items could be the old compass pouch

AE86tofu SG

yup.....my Sect Comd still has that....plus a few of my officers....who disrupt and then come back 2 continue serving one....tt one i ehard fo SOC is better cos lighter....

dragonstar SG

Yes, you are right ! --------------------- you dunno wat WW2 SBO is Laughing

What you have got is the old style SBO - probably with 2 ammo pouches that can take 4x30 round magazines with room for two grenades at the side of each pouch, right?

There are even older pouches issued earlier, each ammo pouch having 3 compartments that each hold 2x20 round magazines.

While I have the above, I do not have the WW2 SBO, but I do have the ammo pouches - they are just an oblong pouch with a single compartment that is about 2.5 in deep, 4.5 in wide and 6.5 in high that allows chargers with .303 rounds to be carried.
