Things a soldier would carry other than firearms, ammo, or uniforms. Meaning equipment such as ammo pouches, bayonets, holsters, oil cans, cleaning equipment, etc.

The current "Swiss shooter" trick is to lightly spray them with a poly-spar varnish type product. This will make the carboard last. They will last as is with the gentle touch all us collectors have with our kit. At least me
I look for the dealers of ammo who give some out with your purchase.
I have a Swiss bandoleer ready with a full set loaded for....
well you know...in case the Martians or Chinese paras land on my roof. Other wise, I load by hand at the range.

finally won 4 on ebay got them in the mail today tried one out in the rifle very handy but I see how they could easly become messed up with improper handling, the rounds I used in them where the .284 win. rounds that I had resized to 7.5x55 swiss these are pretty neat chargers and different than any stripper clip i have.
