Can't help there, I could say where I've seen it on BOB, but we all know not to take that as gospel!

Yup, that's why I asked, haven't seen them in photos I don't think...I do think it looks nice though. Will do some research!

the name tag on your M1942 jumpsuit jacket, is that accurate, I was thinking about doing that myself?

why dont you get a strip cut, and your name / knickname stencilled on, then pin it onto your jumpsuit when you want, that way you don't have to sew it on or whatnot, and can take it off for games.

Weren't name tags a barracks thing - to keep your kit together since everything went to laundries also lost/pinched kit had to be paid for? I'm sure I've seen pics/vids of chaps training with scrawled or taped names.

Excellent! Really good...although I couldn't do with having my M42 Jacket buttoned and zipped up to the top.

Thought I'd upload a few pictures to. Sorry for the lack of weapons but they aren't allowed in Holland.




*The photographer is Kraut and the Willys jeep belongs to him also. Love that Jeep.
