So don’t think I marched there for this reason – it could carry another name – but because there is a very important goal... this goal I wanted to take – and you know – we are very modest, we have it already."

FJ helmet and a pair of jackboots.

I've been wearing them in around the house, with the usual domestic hilarity ensuing. I also did some gardening in them :)

A few things I've picked up over the last couple of months

A nice 1944 dated bedroll

JG BD blouse, trousers, slouch hat, puttees and Khaki Drill & Jungle Green by M J Brayley
I got this lot from a guy on the US WW2 airsoft forum for £67 delivered :D

160lb Tent

2 sets of No.4 woodwork

Another KJW M700

A number of 39 pattern items

Pair of BD trousers

And finally a pouch which I've been unable to identify, I suspect it's probably post war and possibly foreign

Post war Belgian gasmask bag!
The webbing material is usually a green colour (even unblanco'd) compared to the khaki/tan colour of British webbing, and may have the ol' ABL (Armée Belgisch[e] Léger) stamp inside.
I've got quite a few of these is great condition. They can be picked up very cheaply - even from London militaria stalls.

A splinter '44 smock. Thats the regular splinter colours but with fuzzy edges like Sumpf.
Something else I doubt I'll ever wear but I have always liked the print.
5 xP38 can openers. Always handy and always not where I think they should be.
