    Black tie 1920's/1930's

    I need some help here! Got this invitation to a party (in London). It says "Black Tie 1920's / 1930's". In my book a Black Tie is a black tie - or was it any different in the roaring twenties and thirties? Is it OK to wear a pocket square matching the butterfly - or is that totally out...

    RAF buttons

    It could be a good little TV drama here. Somewhere in London or B'ham - one day in 1939 a woman is making one button out of the thousands of buttons she produces. Now who is she? The button goes to a uniformmaker and is sewn upon a tunic. Who gets the tunic. What happens to that man. Is he...

    RAF buttons

    Ahhh - the details! In my drawer I have some RAF tunic Kings Crown buttons. I took them out today, just to have a look - and give them a polish. Then I looked at the back of the buttons and found they were all made by different makers. The strange part is, that one of the buttons are either...

    Historical Debate Regarding the WWII

    In any war/conflict there has to be two parts, and if you do reenactment (which I do not) there has to be another side. But being the son of a man who fought in the resistance against the nazis, I find it very hard to accept the facination some people has towards SS, wehrmacht, luftwaffe and...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Here it was the other way. I finally persuaded my wife to see it. Her comment was: "OK - but too much flying for my taste" I said: "Well it's just like a George Clooney movie - too much George Clooney for my taste" I mean, what did she expect - should they ride bicycles? lol

    WWII - "Fly Boy" Re-enactment

    Don't know if I understands you right, but are you looking for refference pictures - or are you looking for a place, where you can actually buy all the stuff. And do you have some uniform part allready? The easy way out might be going for a US pilot. That way you might get around it in a...

    Flying boots

    What a shame - but then I am even more happy with mine. Has anybody here actually seen, tried or bought the 1936 pattern boots from WPG???? Could be super with a review. (Edit) They are not at WPGs site anymore - maybe they were given up.
