The history of the US GP Strap dates back to at least World War II, where the straps were used for anything and everything.  Originally made of cotton web, and later of nylon, the GP straps became slings for special forces in the late 1980s and into the 1990s.  The more common use was to carry a duffle bag or ammo cans, or as a binocular strap.
