Are they all your own groups photos? Not all of the ones on your website are. Flattered though I am that you have a picture of me and some of our lads on your home page, before using pictures that are from another group, maybe you should ask first as a courtesy.

From what I have been told is was a googled picture
I didn't know a google picture needed permission
However I will tell our web guy to remove it asap.
sorry for the error

You dont need both, if you carried that much brass you would strain some thing

Re: Tobruk 2012 (Aus)
I beg to differ. My opinion is based on two points:SplinterB wrote:You dont need both, if you carried that much brass you would strain some thing
1. Late war period photographs
2. My own personal experience (as a real paratrooper, albeit that was 30 years ago!). You carry as much ammunition as you can - and then some!
Re: Tobruk 2012 (Aus)
To my knowledge Tobruk wasn't late war lol .could you share the photos with us? . Carrying as much ammo as you can and having 2 different types of carrying method are different.
Re: Tobruk 2012 (Aus)
He's Police rather than infantry - and the bandoliers empty. looks like somebodys bought stuff and wants to wear it.

German ww2 infantry dont carry that much ammo - they aint supposed to - If they are piled up with anything - it will be MG ammo. And this dudes an MP anyway.

Ahhh... That'll teach me to look at the picture before passing comment in future! However, I maintain my 'real world' positionGliderinf wrote:He's Police rather than infantry - and the bandoliers empty. looks like somebodys bought stuff and wants to wear it.

Yeah think I should of taken the bandolier before putting that police necklace
They guys pulled it out off the bag and handed it to me and I had no idea what it was until they told.
Next time I will have a new mp-40 and pouches anyhow.
