Roughouts mostly I'da thought which are light brown
(when new, I hasten to add, not whilst scrambling through black volcanic sand!)
or service boots chestnut brown (Very few black boots in US service in WWII
Double-buckles not in circulation at this point
M8's yer fella for all things USMC
Uncle Bulgaria,
He can remember the days when he wasn't behind the lines,
With his map of the emplacement.
Pick up the relics and take them to the surface!
Don't worry it won't happen. I had the same problem with the dodge, as a Norwegion registration document (clearly showing that the truck was built in 1944 was insufficient proof of age (FFS!) I sent off to Chrysler and got the build card for it (so it too has a birthday!). If i can dredge any more information from the bottom of my brain at this hour in the morning i'll let y'know. MVT areas usuallly have a verification officer who'll come and cast an eye over it and write a letter, but the build card did the trick for me...
no Q plate nor nowt :-D
Get y'self to The Flag Pub at Garstang on 5th December
South Cumbria / Noth Lancs MVT meeting... a Good start & plenty of Jeepers to chat to
Oh & me :mrgreen:
This sounds like a great event.
Sadly its too far for me to take the Dodge (lake district :roll:)
What are the overnight facilities? Camping etc?
& could we (those without vehicles) get lifts with those who have... pretty please!
I could even offer my services as a driver... if anyone is in need!
Cheers
Rupert
