It would seem that most people are booking on as FJ and a few heer... Which is great, I love a bit of uniformity.
To that end, if you have Heer, luftwaffe field or ground troops or FJ please wear it, it would amazing to get as many people dressed similar as we can πΒ
Same for the British team, as much battle dress as possible please!
A small contingent of about 8-10 of us Brits will definitely be turning up in BDs and Brodies 👍Β
Been doing research and it would appear that FJ didn`t have Tropical Kit on Crete. It seems that any tropical kit was earmarked for DAK and contemporary pictures show FJ in liberated British Kit shorts and even pith helmets.Β

Good really as i got rid of all my tropical FJ kit
@hanschen-klein You are 100% correct. However, we arnt doing crete until next year π
Road to Campoleone is based on Anzio.
Glad you spotted that Still haven`t got Tropical kit though 🤣 really looking forward to this if I can make it 90% at the moment
@hanschen-klein EPIC!
I hope we get all you guys down, we enjoy a big blow out with the Brits π
I think Dadda is going FJ also!
I'm planning on bodging up a tropical FJ look for Campoleone, although it will be with British KD trousers and shirt I captured while with Ramcke in the desert. Ahem. I've seen a few pics of FJ on Crete in smocks and (captured) shorts, which does look quite hilarious but no doubt very practical in the blazing heat.Β
