In the 1950s and 60s, the Swiss Army introduced a green and white flecked camouflage pattern, produced only in packs and field gear. It was called Swiss "pepper" camo, and today any Swiss pepper camo is a rare and difficult item to encounter. The Swiss idea of deterence was for every adult male to keep a uniform, arms, and web gear in his home as part of a citizen Army, and since the Swiss considered every trooper to be a mountain trooper, their standard backpack was a mountain rucksack. This Vintage 1960s Swiss Pepper Camo Mountain Rucksack Pack is in very good condition, with a broken left main pocket strap, and some crossed out writing on the back of the pack.
