Sgtleo. We called them mattress covers We used them to fill them with straw and lay on them.
We only had them in No. Africa. we also had rubber insulated 35 gal bags for water and we
hung them on a tripod. The bags had spigots to draw water for drinking only. Put aterbrine
tablets in the water to purify it. Sgtleo you should have seen some of them arabs when they
cut holes on the corners, they would stick their legs through the holes pull it up and double it back to the waist, get a rope and tie it around leaving on end long that was brought from the waist between the legs to raise the cloth up and it made it look like pants legs.Hell of a looking sight.
