The M1941 Pioniersturmgepäck was a special equipment bag that was used solely by Pioneer units of Germany during WWII. The pack itself consisted of a single cloth backpack with two side pouches connected to it. The purpose of the Pioniersturmgepäck was to allow Pioneer troops to carry additional equipment they may need in combat. For example, in each group of five pioneers, one would be assigned a Pioniersturmgepäck. Typical combat loads included two Nb. 39 smoke grenades, a demolition charge, Karabiner 98k clips, and or a mess kit.
