277 RI

            French soldier of the 277 RI with this text at the back : "Poilu prêt à partir à l'assaut des tranchées. carapace protecteur contre shrapnells cagoule (lunette) sachet protecteur contre les gaz asphyxiants." In english : "Poilu ready to storm the trenches. Protective shell against shrapnel hood (goggles) protective bag against asphyxiating gases." The "carapace" is quite rare. The "Rosalie" is fixed on the Lebel. Normally this helmet was rather made for lookouts. His equipment for storming the trenches does not fully resemble the equipment of trench raiders.

I wonder if it is a grenade bag.
