There were 600 WS-C58 sets issued to the Home Guard. This is the Canadian made manpack, hence the "C". The WS-C58 and WS58 are the same set. If you google ws58 there is a lot of info & photos around the web. In October of 1944 the sets were withdrawn from service as the Guard stood down in December.
