This lightweight poncho liner was meant as a replacement for the wool blanket. Compared to the blanket, this is way lighter, a bit warmer dries faster, and can be squeezed to a very small space. These are ERDL-camouflaged but mostly made in the '80s.
Originally put into service during the Vietnam war, this became the standard-issue sleeping gear for hot climates. It is mostly meant to be used in conjunction with the rain poncho, as a liner. The process is very simple: tie the liner to the grommets of the poncho. Then button the poncho in a way it resembles a tube. Get in and sleep. The US Army states that the lowest manageable temperature is about +10C°.
Measurements about 157 x 204cm.
As said, this is very light at about 650g and can be compressed to a size smaller than a football. Materials used are lightweight ripstop-nylon and polyester filling. Condition is used but serviceable. These are ERDL camouflaged and have the center seam, perfect to go with Vietnam gear.
The colors on these are very faded, and the general appearance is rough with missing tie-strings and possible tears.
