Canadian 82 Pattern Small Field Pack Butt Pack Named

The Canadian 82 Pattern Small Field Pack, also known as the “Butt Pack,” is a utility pouch originally issued as part of the Canadian Forces 1982 Pattern webbing equipment. This pack was designed to be worn at the base of the back on the web belt, serving as a compact storage solution for essential field items. Constructed from rugged green nylon, it features a main compartment with a fold-over storm flap secured by adjustable straps and quick-release buckles. Additional side attachment points allow for integration with other gear. The pack’s compact size makes it suitable for carrying rations, basic tools, and personal items. Each example is typically marked with the user’s name or service number for identification. This item reflects Canadian military equipment standards from the late 20th century and is of interest to collectors or researchers of Canadian Forces field gear from this era.
