Original US Military Pup Tent. The fundamental unit of shelter for the U.S. Military in the field since the Civil War is the two-man pup tent. Soldiers of that time were commonly referred to as “dogs”. They wore “dog tags”, slept in tents called “dog houses” and that term evolved to “pup tent”.Water repellant.
Two shelter halves snapped together create a pup tent that is approximately9′ long x 6′ wide x 42″ high.
Each pup tent consists of the following:
- 2 genuine US military, OD green, 8.25 oz cotton sateen fabric shelterhalves with two rows of snaps along the ridge for fastening together
- Tan wooden pole assemblies (2 sets of 3 – not original USA)
- 10 metal nails
- 2 guide lines ( new paracord)
*Due to scarcity of supply, the poles, stakes, and lines may be substitutedwith European or commercially made equivalents.
