Second Service Goods builds bags and field goods by hand in Las Vegas, Nevada. The materials that give each bag its character have served before this brand existed — military surplus waxed canvas, friendly-force marker panel lining — the VS‑17 and its descendant, the Combat Identification Panel — and Cold War Talon brass zippers. What binds them is new and chosen to last: fresh bonded thread, bias and seam tape, and a solid brass tag stamped by hand. The character is salvaged. The construction is new, so the bag outlives the materials that made it.
Every piece is sewn one at a time, numbered on a brass tag, and recorded. The registry ties each bag to its materials, its zipper, and the pattern it was cut from. When the materials are gone, the run ends.
32678 was an Air Force Specialty Code. From 1982 to 1991, Dave Hammonds served under it. The number on the tag is the code he carried. The story is on the next page.
