The lightweight
and easy to use Musette Bag was a popular alternative pack for many soldiers
who would be otherwise be using the M-1928 Haversack. Although the Musette
Bag was never the standard backpack, it was used widely in all theaters of
World War II. When the M-1944 Field Pack and Cargo Pack were introduced, the
Musette Bag was rendered obsolete.

The M-1928 pack (or haversack) was
directly evolved from the M-1910 pack which differed in
only a few details. These packs were carried by American
infantry (and other arms and services) from before World
War I through World War II.
Although widely used, the M1928 pack was very
impractical in the field and consequently unpopular with
the troops.
