Maybe he first attached the strap and put on the paenula after that ? This seems also to be the case with the legionary in the middle.<br>
<br>
I have never carried a shield and a cloak simultaneously with the shield on my back (only with the shield on my side), but I prefer to first take on the shield and then the cloak.<br>
<br>
Otherwise, you would have to take off the shield, too, if it gets too hot. And if you carry a lot of equipment Junkelmann-style, it is a cumbersome operation.<br>
If you put the cloak over the shield straps you can take it off more easily.<br>
<br>
Just my humble opinion - I don't know what other units have experienced.<br>
