The M2 flamethrower (M2-2) was a man-portable backpack flamethrower that was used in World War II. Although its actual "burn time" was around 7 seconds and the flame was only effective out to around 33 meters, it was still a functional weapon that had many uses in the war. However, with the later arrival of tanks and, especially, flamethrower tanks, the need for infantrymen to expose themselves to fire became unnecessary as tanks offered greater protection while still delivering the effective damage.
As some were sold off, the majority of them were also scrapped when they were declared "obsolete."

A small excercise in off-camera flash. The ribbon on the backpack is the St. George's ribbon — one of the most recognized and respected symbols of military valor in Russia. (More info: Russia Honors War Heroes as May 9th Approaches)

My cooper backpack (variation 2) from Colette Patterns made of canvas (i think?) and synthetic leather.
I'm currently visiting my grandma in Taiwan and had fun hunting down the hardware and using her old iron, machine, and mallet to make this bag. I also loved not having to make a muslin for fit! Hooray!
An easy make, but take note if you are not using a flat slider - the instructions don't account for it. My slider had an obvious right/wrong side and I had to do a bit of guessing and playing around so that the slider would face the correct side. I also found it difficult to use an awl to create holes for the rivets. It was much easier to use a tiny punch and punch out the spots instead. The rivets slid in easily and I didn't have to fight to get them in. I wish this bag had some zippers, especially for the main part, but it still holds things nicely. It's just me who is paranoid about pickpockets or things falling out accidentally. I do love all the pockets though as there are a total of 8 (!). That's a lot, and so this bag holds my keys, wallet, umbrella, phone, scarf, sweater, and chap stick perfectly. I also felt so stylish wearing this when compared to all the "regular looking" backpacks out there. Overall I am very pleased with my first bag make.
I have more photos and wrote more in my blog here: cathywu.com/journal/kalali/2013/12/12/cooper-backpack-bag/
With the bottom folded to the mark, and the flap folded down over that, it's easy to place the harness.

I was supposed to catch my first flight today ( going to Frankfurt ) and continue by flying to Toronto. But due to bad weather the flight got cancelled and the same with the replacement flight. Long story short - I am still in Austria and got a direct connection to Toronto tomorrow morning. At least all of that gave me a chance to post this picture of the gear that I put into my backpack... ;) Besides the equipment shown in the picture I guess the 1st gen Surface Pro and the Feisol CT-3401 are also worth to be mentioned. Looking forward to finally get going tomorrow!

This is the ridiculously awesome backpack I got from work. It has 743 zipped pockets. It means I never have to be more than a wifi connection away from work! Yay! ;)
