Dayton Ohio Museum
I'd be in for FL meeting there, depending on when. In fact, I would LOVE it. I have memorized their collection and have been going since I was a kid.- Trotsky

WWII Photos (and Stories) of Our Loved Ones
My Grandpa was an Tech Corporal in the 5th USAAF, 72nd Tactical Reconnaissance Group, 82nd Reconnaissance Squadron, New Guinea and the Philippines. I have a large amount of photos from his time served, he apparently was fascinated by nose art. The 82nd was known as "The Strafin' Saints" and... -
What are you wearing today??
Let me make a suggestion. Just bear with me. Go to Magnoli's site. Order a 10th Doctor suit. Get chucks. Seriously, you bear more than just a little resemblance to the 10th Doctor. It's almost uncanny. I would exploit the hell out of that resemblance.- Trotsky

FS: Pale Blue Suit, 1960s cut
No label, I bought this from a dealer on ebay who claimed that he had supplied the production of Austin Powers with the suits he was auctioning off. This certainly fits the style, I would describe it as "moddish" in cut. The jacket is at least a 48 and the pants are a 42. I'll put some...- Trotsky

Looking for Opinions/Suggestion on U-Boot Leather Coat
Go Magnoli. I have a Wested XXL Black one and while I love it, IT DOES NOT FIT. Sorry for shouting. Once I get some more cash I want to sell the Wested and buy a Magnoli myself. The Wested is nice, but like many things I have heard on COW, the lining at the bottom of the sleeve tearing...- Trotsky

Fallschirmjager Regiment 6 - Pacific Northwest
Oh, I love this argument. Gets me up in the morning! Reenacting: Living History. When I reenact I do not strive to show the public how cool I am by wearing a uniform from WWII. I show up to events, set my display up and interpret the best I can to a public that had little idea of "the... -

The Elephant in the Room - Man Purse
Bought a British small pack at a surplus store, dyed black, which I believe was done for the RAC in the 1950s. Brass hardware, Second World War production, just black. I plan on affixing a brown or black leather strap through the side buckles and BAM! I have a small manpurse that reeks for...- Trotsky

Jeans
I picked up some dickies at Wal-Fart, $10. They have a higher waist for sure, and are a bit skinnier than my rotund frame likes, but they work well enough for $10 (and make me try a bit harder to get into shape!) I have a pair of George dark indigo jeans that I picked up for $5 on clearance...- Trotsky

Size 46 XL DB Navy Jacket
Hello, Digging out the closet produced this beauty: It's a Black, double breasted navy jacket, more modern to be sure, size listed on the inside pocket as 46XL. Buttons are fake football type, added by me. This does not fit me (too small and too long) or trust me, I would not be...- Trotsky

Vintage "Convoy" coat
Yes, blue was issued, I have a few pics of the two side by side. Seems to be a more Second World War thing, and not postwar, but I could be wrong.- Trotsky

What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
It's -9 or so here. So, I pulled out the blue-grey German m43 cap. Warm, functional and no brim to snag on the hood of my duffle coat. I broke out the big guns for today. -
"Ike" Jacket?
Looks like a custom Ike Jacket made in Britain for an American. Alternately, it does closely resemble the 2nd Pattern ETO jacket, which saw very, very limited use by the US after June 1944. -
The 10 Commandments of Style????
You know, one of the advantages of being partially color blind is that you know your limitations. I try to keep my color palette simple to avoid problems. Browns, greens, and certain shades of red give me problems. Brown with grey? Not when I think it's green. Brown with blue? Well, especially...- Trotsky
