Ok next question...correct colour of helmet net? Green, tan or brown...I'm probably leaning towards tan or brown.

Meh... just go without. 
Excellent Impression Spiers, I am uber jealous of the 30 cal. I must admit I just swapped over to the "Big Red One" myself from the 2nd Rangers (lack of airborne boots).
The Normandy US infantry uniform is classier than the airborne isn't it? I have to admit the canvas leggings, even though they are a bitch to put on, do look swanky.

Haha you wouldn't be as jealous if you got a bit closer to it, it's a home made one, made out of wood & plastic! I think that in terms of which uniform looks smarter then I'd have to go for the US Infantry one but I find that for utility and comfort, it's definately the Airborne uniform, plus you can't fault the boots over the Roughouts...I love my Corcorans haha.

agreed. 
Now a 'namsofter. I have an M72 L.A.W. for sale for 110 posted, PM if interested.

Even more impressive, looks good.
One from me as a Combat Medic during last weeks Skirm.
I was able to borrow Krauts MP40 since my Cybergun Thompson suddenly had to high of a FPS rate for the first time in 1,5 years. 
Dawson; Baker Company; 101st Airborne; 82nd Airborne; 5th Rangers, 89th Panzer Stählern Füchse, 6th FJR.
A medic armband with an Mp and 2 pistols!! 
Quite the one man army? 
You should drop the flag off your right sleeve though, not really correct for 101st wearing M42s.
aka Stigroadie
AFRA

Constructive criticism welcome baring in mind I know buggerall about infantry loadouts!
Looks good, I only have doubts over the trousers. What are they?

Your kidding! I genuinely thought it was the new Airsoft 30 cal!, Very nice work, fooled me anyway...
Nice kit Dawson, like i said I like the Airborne loadout, but I always like to go the basic G.I/landser/Tommy rather than the more elite units like US Airborne, Waffen SS or the Red Devils, I don't really suit the look with my Beer Belly!
I like to play the poor sod just trying to survive the war, do his bit for Uncle Sam/Fuhrer/King and get back to his Mom/Mutti/Mum!

Give that man a prize!

No, close but no cigar, they're the correct colour and a similar fabric but have combat pockets on the side and came from Asda for £8...

Reminds me of a theme tune... "It's Lippy the Lion, and farby haha"

I think those trousers are fine. Don't forget we still have "lookalike" rules folks! Spiers does Airborne 99% of the time, so,it doesn't make sense to spend a load of dosh on hardly to be used infantry kit! The same reason why I will not be buying any cocoran boots for my airborne kit.
When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!
Can't fault £8.00 for some lookalike HBTs, and the pockets could always be taken off if you felt so inclined.
Not a lot of M3 Knives in the US Inf, correct me if I'm wrong...
Yeah regular Infantry had them too, nice kit though Alex!
