You don't have any funds left from NW?

We never even had funds from NW.

Which apparently is correct.
Probably one of the very few old-timers here who hasn't been a regimental leader.

You know, I've gotten pretty flirty at multigroup events, but I've never thought 'What I really need now is an authentic condom'.

Each to their own, I guess.
Crawling back to you,
Ever thought of calling when you've had a few? 'cause I always do.

I originally thought it was just empty packet, for $6 dollar. I went ahead for all the laughs and the jokes i'd bring into the unit, but the salesperson went ahead showed me the one that was already opened. Turns out actual modern trojan condom inside. For 6 dollar, why the hell not.   Bang that girl ww2 style. Blitzkrieg her like its 1939. R u Polan cuz u make me wanna anschluss you.

Is that wire always on top, even when nothing is sticking in there?

Yes it would be but I replaced it with twine nets as my unit were issued those. I'm not using chicken wire until everyone in my unit get them so we can wear them at the same time. 

That chicken wire right now is gonna hold my eggs.

Were those wires officially issued or did soldiers make that themself?

They made it themselves. There were quite a few you could have on your helmet. Chickenwire net, twine net, rubber band, breadbag strap, and of course, camo covers.

Deo is correct. I wear chicken wire and so does the others in my unit. More often seen on the Westfront.

Anyways, bought the new At The Front M43 Feldbluse. Just need to sew on insignia. Also bought 90 red tipped 8mm blanks from Atlantic Wall Blanks.

How's the quality. I'm thinking about the M40.

It's great, but it runs a little large. I ordered the Medium which is supposed to fit for 37-40. I'm a 40. So keep that in mind.

Also, I bought a brown leather map case for $30 at Linden. Forgot about that one.
