[QUOTE="rknarr2, post: 9479047, member: 9614"]My hot water tank burst and this was pictured and discarded by mitigation company. These are the only pictures that I have of this item. I checked with a military forum as well as military topic at this website. However, the military forum does not believe it is a command modular post system as I suspected because they did not come out until the early to middle 1990s and and all the walls were the same size, 11'. This item that I am calling a tent was alot older than that and says its size is 9' 10" By 12' 1", so that eliminates a Modular Command Post. The markings do not look like they have enough information to be military. (No stock number, date of manufacture, that sort of thing.). This military forum member thought this might be a wall tent like the ones that were used in scout camps. It weighs 9.93 oz. and is made of a single fill duck. The way I understand it from another member from this website duck is like a canvas material. While the cut size is 9'10" x 12'1", the pin. size is 9'6" x 11'9". It was made by Powers & Co. The dimensions and company are shown on the first attachment. My insurance company asked me to date a list of water damaged items for them. This is on that list. I would like to know what decade do you think this is from? Thank you for help in this matter. Regards, Rob [ATTACH=full]444196[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]444197[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
