Some Black Airsoft protection gloves (That aren't the ones I had at the Luga game as I left them on a bus and some bastard has ran off with em :cry: )

Why ruin a good impression with some modern gloves? Surely some simple woolen gloves would do the job just as well and look 10x better?

There not so bad, there more like leather gloves than the hard knuckle ones

Well Jim you dont really need our approval, but seeing as you asked, even though there not the big padded ones I still think the cut/style seems a little modern. how about a plain pair of leather gloves or even better woollen ones?

If I come across some wool gloves I'll get em. As for the gloves I've already got em

If the weather is kind on the day I'll give the gloves a miss

I rather not spoil everyone else day if I can help it

Pretty sure they didnt have neoprene in 1944 :wink:

Why not just a simple pair of these for half the price!?

Gents, will we have some kind of flag or symbol to meet up? So far i only met Dadio, Gareth and Tim. Would try to be at the camp on friday for some team building (and training?) but will probably not be able to stay the night. Be back early in the morning again. L

Yes, the camping area at Eversley isn't huge and I am sure us Pioniere will be easy enough to spot. I look like my profile picture, although I'll be in my side cap in the evening.

Cheers

Just say hello to any Germans. I, too, look like my profile photo, and will be wearing a side cap, and no doubt, a toque and greatcoat, cos I'm a wuss. :good:

Yeah, I think so. Depends on my Gruppenfuhrer really.

I don't suppose any of you have a spare helmet that I can borrow for the day?

... I'm wondering if I've opened the door on a major double entendre here! :ghey:
