[Milsurplus] SCR-203, SCR-209 sightings anyone?

[WF2U]

Yes, I saw a Phillips pack saddle. I also saw a Phillips officer's saddle. I
own a 1906 McClellan saddle with all the rest of the tack, as per US Cavalry
Regulations of 1906... I spent many hours in that saddle on my horse. The
radio I carried was a (gasp!) 2 M handheld... But that's what I take with me
on trail rides.
