Тов.Милчеву: вот такой отрывок про "тряпочки" ине только.
Салют!
"World War I produced a large number of experiments in the body armor field. France developed a number of chest, thigh and leg protectors, but for some reason never issued them to the field units. The English were more active and produced 18 different body shield designs for commerical use. These designs included some "soft armors" with padded neck defences and vests with linen, tissue, cotten and silk. One experimental version included a uniform jacket with the entire chest area lined with small metal plates. From 1917-1918 the British Government produced a corslet known as the E.O.B. Evidently very efficient, it consisted of a metalic breast and back plate with abdomen protection. Germany by far, made the most extensive use of body armor. Weighing 19-24 pounds, the shields were composed of a large metalic breast plate with flat hook-like shoulder harnesses. Secured to the bottom by two long straps were three plates for mgroin protection. Designed for protection, not mobility, they were primarily used by machine gun crews.2"
Если будут ещё заинтересованные - можно будет перевесть, хотя я в этом не спец...
С почтением. Китаец.
