    “Getting dressed as a WW2 German Paratrooper during the battle of the bulge.”
    Yes this is a re-upload!
    Some of you early early birds may of seen me upload this a few days back but there was a technical issue! Hopefully all fixed now!
    Enjoy!

    Seeing you put on the jumping boots brought a tear to my eye. As my Papa (age 92) was near the end after he had a stroke he wanted his Schuhe. He'd been caught near Falaise in Normandie and was 'liberated' of most of his belongings. 😢

    There's a similarly dressed para in an illustration in men at arms series German airborne troops. The ardennes is probably my favourite battle in wartime photos due to huge variation in camo uniforms of heer, luftwaffe and ss troops. Battle of the bulge; then and now is a great reference book

    Those were some cool uniforms. Kinda expected to see FG-42 instead of MP 40, but anyway very good video. Amazing how many things they actually carried, very smartly packed.

      Unfortunately I cannot recall where I got the jumper from as I was given it as a gift, however with some simple sewing skills you could easily convert a grey “turtle neck” into a similar style.
      Great fan of your channel btw!

    Although a bit off-tooic for this video, what vendor did you use for your M44 Bluse in your 1939-1945 video?
