Super niche Impression, don’t think I have seen anyone do RN Commando yet which is a shame as they did so much in the Falklands alongside with the Royal Marines. Also a unit not many people know about.
Kit on Mannequin:
Arctic Windproof Smock, Scrim Scarf, 1958 Pattern Webbing, Royal Marines beret with Royal Navy Capbadge (Royal Navy Commando)
Clothing:
Arctic Windproofs, KF shirt, Jersey Heavy Wool
Equipment:
LW Para Helmet with Mitchell cover (fairly common for 2 Para in the Falklands), 1958 Pattern Webbing (4x 58 Pattern Waterbottle Pouches and 2x 44 Pattern Waterbottle Pouches instead of Kidney Pouches; FFD taped to the belt as per SOP; Poncho roll with Crisp Packets (nickname for Waterproofs), Cold Weather Liners, IPK and Shovel)
Any questions and tips or pointers appreciated 👌
Kit Worn:
Clothing: Arctic Windproof Smock, Jersey Heavy Wool, KF Shirt, Scrim Scarf
Equipment: 58 Pattern Webbing set up for what a NCO might need in the Field, PRC349, Lightweight Parachutist Helmet with Vinyl Chinstrap (typically worn by 3 Para, 2 Para would have mainly Canvas Chinstraps), Poncho Roll packed with Crisp Packets, Cold Weather Liners, IPK and Poncho
Bought this bottle + pouch earlier today on EBay thinking it might be SADF. Unfortunately tho one of my mates who collects SADF Militaria said this isnt the case.
Any help with Identifying would be much appreciated 🙏
