If buttons fall off its authentic. Landsers had to sew most the buttons on their uniforms after they were issued as they fell off easily from the fac...

Out of interest, is there a way to date tommy helmets? The metal lugs that the chin strap attaches to often have a date. Mine say 'MKII 1938'

Excellent, dead useful that. With some good pics we should perhaps ask dave to make it a sticky or on the drop down menu. I dont mind if they use the...
