I have some 60s replacement strecher canvas. Same as WWII except for no Medical Corps Insignia. Interested?

I didn't check again after F.R. said it was them, I know I saw it somewhere and his description sounded right (what I saw was "khaki") but I'm certain someone had them.

I think they even repop'd them with the caduceus on the back? Maybe it was someone else offering them.

Oh you know what, maybe I'm wrong. I thought they were stretcher covers. Well if anyone can't find them I still have 60s issue replacements. They are OD green with U.S. And no Medical Corps insignia. I have two left for $15 and if you want more I can get more but they will be about $20. The place I get them from has about 100 of them but they raised the price after it went under new management.
