I have searched the web high and low and have given up on that approach.
My searches included commercial, army-surplus and government web sites.
But, I can not find exactly what I'm looking for.
Years ago I had what I believe to be a genuine foot locker from this era.
It was solid wood construction, OD painted with white SSN number and name
spraypainted on it. I wish I had kept it, but it was in bad condition anyways.
I recall the general construction of it terms of the joinery used, but I sure
would like to build one following any precise mil-spec that may exist.
Thanks in advance for any positive feedback.
