  • This time we'll be looking at the 1908 Valise and what's inside...
    As part of the Monty's Men adventure I've teamed up with Jake from the Jake Brown Collection. www.youtube.co....
    This series of videos will follow us through our preparations for next year's Monty's Men Trip which is considered the top in WW2 reenacting. We'll be covering preparations and getting our kit up to the exceptionally high standards required
    Monty’s Men is a collective of individual living historians who are usually members of other groups. The group, albeit without a name, existed in 2002 but the first Monty’s Men ‘branded’ trip was in 2003 as a platoon of the 9th Battalion, Durham Light Infantry.
    The ethos behind the Monty’s Men group is a fully immersive living history experience and, wherever possible, not compromising on accuracy. As such, the men were fed from compo rations to the same menus as the 1944 British infantrymen and there were little modern conveniences other than where modern safety standards required it. (Richard Fisher)

      Maybe you could once talk about the Battledress insignia, patches, titles etc. I see a lot of pictures taken in the war where soldiers wear BD's without any insignia. I would love to learn more about that and I can't find any video about it!

    I assume the great coat doubled as a sleeping bag with the blanket used as well.

    This apparently is the choice of all men, historian John Buckley offers a radical reappraisal of Great Britain's fighting forces during the Second World War, challenging the common belief that the British Army was no match for the forces of Hitler's Germany. Let me stand corrected, no match for Hitler's Germany? There were a few Hitler's one was absent minded-There was some confusion about their forthright. Evidently, some force was behind their every opus operandi in account of defying their fight. It became a tug-of-war but every side broke even, armature.
