The denim uniforms were supposed to be worn as work overalls over the BD, but sometimes they got worn instead in hot weather. They are somewhat greene...
As above, basic BD and a basic webbing set is the way to go. You can easily become a para, airlanding, commando, marine, 52nd lowland or whatever by a...
The weather in Italy ranged from extremely hot and sunny to very wet and cold, so the troops wore everything from desert KD to winter gear. There isn'...
Hello and welcome, as above, kit guides give good hints on getting started, and people will lend stuff out. The kit doesn't need to be stitch perfect...
Hello and welcome, the kit guides give some decent tips on getting started, but if you are short of stuff people will often lend it out for events. ...
Hello and welcome, lots of good advice above, and once you've decided to take the plunge, the kit guides will point you in the right direction. I ke...
Thank you, it is very kind of you to give me an equal shout, but I am very conscious that I'm contributing the least. Yes, I saw the FB thread. I thi...

OK fine, we should probably open new threads for Kopec and the October game or we'll start to get muddled up. I re-read your post and I think I see w...
Money sent. Put me down for British, did a bit too much Jerry last year. Cheers Martin
As above, I think once the game threads hit the event forum they are visible to all, whether they are locked or not. We have a date and a site, so hel...
If you're thinking about a Pacific/Far East game, keep it simple. It's about the mindset of the individual putting themselves in the role. You can add...
