      The person above me is correct. Cause if I was on D-Day I would want the m7 assault gas mask bag, a bag over my rifle too, but if I was in Battle of the buldge, I would get the M4 lightweight gas mask bag. Or my helmet net, decals, my uniform, like on D-Day with my unit, we have M41 field jackets, but the others could’ve had HBTs. Later in the war some units went with the M43, but the 1st infantry division 16th Infantry Regiment Dog company chose to stick with the M41 the whole war, while the airborne in D-Day chose the M42, but then went to the M43.

      No, it's just a reenactment of the most successful operation during WW2. Operation Overlord took place from June 6th, 1944 to August 30th, 1944.

      depends, this is a public reenactment where they do battles but there's 2 others, one where they show how a US soldier would look like in WW2 and a private reenactment, saying from memory so sorry if I said something incorrect
