Fortunate indeed, thanks again for sharing.

BTW, we are vegetarians, so does that keep me safe from humanitarians?

Arthur: Given that there was little standardisation at the time, Leliepvre's interpretation is not implausible, although he also shows the buff coat worn more conventionally under the coat. Thanks for the images. Can advise you where the Leliepvre images came from? Perhaps my very favorite military ...

We all have to be a little bit eccentric to be in this hobby.

Yes, very nice, and inspiring. Pity it's a 6,000 mile drop-in to see one of these in first-hand.

2012's wargames budget is going to be a demanding proposition...
