We've never really spoken, so I wouldn't know. You were at Vorden? How was it?

I actually wasn't there... wanted to, but as always my efforts were required elsehwere.
Probably one of the very few old-timers here who hasn't been a regimental leader.

The fatherland and its people are grateful.

Yoeri, looking swell in your new uniform. Good job, especially for such a short period of time.

Some determination and a bit of stashed student loan money can get you quite far.

I'm quite pleased with it. Only thing I do miss from my equipage kit are my black woolen trousers. You wouldn't believe how incredibly comfortable those things are.

Just get some linen or white woolen trousers. They are both accurate and actually necessary for a Bardin impression.

Did they actually still issue linnen trousers after introducing the long woolen ones?

Yes. the overall unbleached linen trousers were the main issued item. and most comfortable on march.. the culottes were also issued. so in theory people should have both.

The culottes were abolished in the Bardin reforms and replaced with long and wider woolen trousers.

In theory, yes, we should have them. We'd just never actually wear them.

No. long woolen trousers, for all times. They are the parade trousers. The linen trousers are the campaign trousers.
Same model as the linen trousers, just made out of wool.

Bardin no longer has knee breeches because he no longer has long gaiters. The short black gaiters are suppose to be worn ontop of the trousers for parade. Ofc you can also wear them over the trousers when not in parade.

You can see both parade and non parade gear on the first drawing.

Interesting. He seems to have his bayonet-scrabbard on the other side, with his sabre-briquet.

@Duuring   Sean probably wanted to have intercourse with you, but you unknowingly turned him down by not jumping right on him when he smiled at you the other day, so he felt the need to get a distance between you two so his love wouldn't make him do illegal things when next to you in the camp. 85e split because of a tragic love story, it's all Duuring's fault and gloves were just used as an excuse.

Case closed, everything else is just fake news.

You're probably closer to the truth then you think.

If it is true, then you have 3 options to solve the whole issue.

1.) You murder him.
2.) You have sex with him and then you murder him.
3.) Leave the murdering to me, because I really hate him by now.

Why can't just all of the 85e have sex with all of the dutch 85e?
