Allied kit

Difficult I know , although for Brit it's a bit like Feldgrau I take it , the basis of the whole uniform . I seem to recall all the post war stuff (greek etc) came in child only sizes .

Correct, unless you're pretty small you need to get repro and that has just got more expensive.

To be honest though, you do get a superb uniform for your money. Even the SoF stuff will last you AGES.

I have a set of wool BD I can lend out. Yith's old trousers (whatever they were), and a Greek BD, badged up as 2 Commando. I am quite happy for the borrower to rebadge it, as long as they put it all back - nicely! Fits 36" waist, 42" chest, height 5' 11" or thereabouts.

And I guess I won't be needing my 37 patt webbing for this one, either.

i will borrow the jacket andy if thats ok.

Yith's old trousers (whatever they were),

They were converted 49 pattern.

'Course it is, old chum. Are we likely to bump into each other before this game, or shall I give it to a fellow northerner to hand deliver?

might be better given to someone to pass on to me.

Definitely

I'm *seriously* considering doing this one in my kilt as its the *only* wwii game we're likely to do where its feasable!

i hope you go arse over tit and have your bare behind blatted full of white bits

there's a French Re-enactment group (I knew there had to be if I searched hard enough!) and there's some piccies of 1940 Brit French and German re-enactors that I thought I should share. In case people were going 'hmmm?'

Are you willing to share? there is no link in your post

What, do I have to do everything Oh i am loosing it today, I'm on coffee life support but it is not holding back the tide much.

here you go

i wouldnt buy a gun off a french re-enactor, its probably been dropped once

also the armpits of any jackets would be worn out, or badly weathered, due to the amount of time their hands were in the air

"The 1940 Campaign is a new and exciting version of World War 2 reenacting that is catching on quickly in the Mid Atlantic area."

Huh?? What...like Greenland..?

No it's literal

They play 'convoys and U-Boats'

Or French troops retreating to America via ship.

I just saw this over at ASCUK... basically its a repro MkVII gas mask bag.

But with a daft logo on it.. But that may be hideable.

I'm going to have to do this , as Scaleyback says this could be the only time I get a chance to wear the kilt,being the proud possessor of a 51st highland loadout ,Gordon Highlanders , complete with kilt and kilt apron,going to have to look for a gas mask bag now.

My kilts Gordon too so that will be cool.
