At The Front Repro M1938 Raincoat Review
This is my first initial thoughts about the ATF repro raincoat. It is a very nice coat and I'm quite happy with the purchase but I do have some advice before ordering.

Battle For The Airfield 2023 Footage Shot On Original Camera
zhlédnutí 498Před 8 měsíci
This is a 16mm film shot of Collings Battle For The Airfield 2023 shot on a Kodak model K. This reenactment looks very original on 16mm film/ If you find yourself out near Hutson Massachusetts's early October defiantly check out the reenactment and the American Heritage Museum. Sorry for some parts being unsteady. It has no stabilizer and I had to crank the camera during some of the longer parts.

Getting Dressed As A 1927 US Infantryman
zhlédnutí 879Před 9 měsíci
This is more of an obscure topic in history. You don't hear much about the army in the 1920s and the 1930s so I made this video to make this information out into he public and the history is not forgotten. This uniform was standard issue from 1926-1933 when a new service shoe got developed and more items went into production.

    F in the chat for use big calf guys. I made it work, but could be better. Mine are that yellowish tan, and I'm thinking of dying them brown. I have them for reenacting, but not WW2. I'm using them for western shooting matches, old west reenactments, ect. Also wanted something for keeping my pant legs from snagging on my motorcycle shifter, and something for hunting, to keep from getting my boots soaked from morning dew. Edit: Actually, I do the occasional korean war reenactment, so I guess that's close enough lol

      Most of it is from what price glory. The belt, helmet, haversack and bayonet are original. The campaign hat is made by prairie flower leather co. They make top tier repo helmets, liners and campaign hats but they do take a while. I'm pretty sure it's 3 guys in an old barn running the entire business but they do fantastic work.

    2:07 Those dog tags are 100% not the ones used during the second world war. It's been some time since this video was uploaded so I hope you know this now, but the WW2 identity plates had such a distinctive notch found on the curved part of the tag. This was used so that they would align properly in an embossing machine that printed the information from the tag onto medical records. Another thing is that all of the information on your dog tags are incorrect. For an early war dog tag the order should be; FIRST ROW: First Name, Middle initial, Last name. SECOND ROW: Army serial number, tetanus shot dates, blood type. THIRD ROW: Next of kin. FOURTH ROW: Address. FIFTH ROW: City, state, religion. Later through the war the dog tags were simplified usually removing the address, city, state, and the next of kin and usually the middle initial would be after the last name.

    According to the research I've done, the HBT Daisy May cap saw almost no use in Europe. It saw limited use in it's light shade OD3 color in North Africa and Sicily, but was completely dropped by the time Italy was invaded. It continued to see service in the Pacific though. Another fun fact: the HBT pants especially were used as a windbreaker for troops in Europe over their wool pants to stay warm in winter when they didn't have M43s.
