added the gas mask case and water bottle then added the various straps and belt clips from more sprue card
added strap to side of gas mask case

added D rings to the Y straps from more sprue

sanded one of the kit ammo belts thinner then sawed between each round and draped it over his shoulder

Lots of work going in but great improvement.
