The development of the British soldier throughout WW1.
We are WW1/WW2 British re-enactors who attend 1940s events around the country. We also do displays and re-enactments for the public.
There needs to be a german and French version of this. Great stuff!
Ja, there should be but What division? Infantry, Tank, Artillery.
But I think SS will be harder

This is my new favourite channel
Thank you!
Such an underrated channel. I hope that changes some day!
This is solid
Excellent .
Wow. I do ww1 royal highlanders and I’m 9 years old
Many of the 'first 100,000' (volunteers - Kitchener's Blues) trained in old dark blue uniforms until they were supplied the proper kit. I would recommend the book 'The First Hundred Thousand' by Ian Hay. First published 1917. Its pretty funny in places.
The blue uniforms were made of serge material. Later a large number of them were shipped to Germany as clothing for British POWs.
This was a great very informative video yet it was only 3 mins long well done lads
That was frigging awesome dude!!
Really really cool😃👍👌🏼

Sick rifle !!! I loved the vid:)
Would irish and ulster regiments be issued the same things? I know they had the different cap badges but I mean in terms of uniform and kit.
Yes pretty much!
@@thehistoryboys264 Thanks!
@@thehistoryboys264 Scottish uniforms, especially for Highland units, were different, with a bonnet and sometimes a kilt. Scottish officers also had a somewhat different sleeve rank insignia.
This is amazing! My second cousin fought in the First World War and was killed in the battle of passchendaele or the 3rd battle of Ypres
hey i loved this vid do you know where to get it from and mabye in new zeland
Hello! We use a range of reproduction items and original kit. For example our webbing is from What Price Glory, an online site, the weaponry and smaller items are original pieces.
What would I need to buy to pull off the volunteer reserves uniform? I have a cap, Webley revolver non- firing replica and a trench whistle. Can I use any of these and what else do I need and where can I get it from that isn't too expensive?
What shirt and pants did u use for the second one? Are they special ww1 or a shirt that looks like the ones used?
Doing up the puttees was probably the most difficult part.
Excuse me, do you know where I can get a uniform like that?

For uniform we recommend Khaki on Campaign!

Whats the bag on your chest in the late war one
The Small Box Respirator haversack. The Gas Mask Bag.
Very similar to the American doughboy attire. Interesting
🤦🏼♂️
The American one was less functional, with a stiff standing collar that was rather uncomfortable.
Wonderful 🥹
