Hi, for re-enactment I wear many original items of uniform and equipment, but I am careful about how I use it.

Back in the 1980's I used to portray a US Infantryman. There were not repro items in those days and everything I wore was original, even down to the socks and underpants!

Cheers, Ade.

I've worn some of my belts/buckles.....mostly Weimar and WW1 stuff - but the odd time I'll wear a TR army belt buckle. I've done this quite a bit....Such a cool look to German buckles.

Cheers!

I used a ww2 brit waterbottle when I went somewhere nasty and sandy with HM forces....it was quite convenient with just a web strap, but it was a little frowned upon my some of the striped numpteys who didd'nt appreciate the historical significance! LOL
