I am in the process of putting together the exact battledress a British soldier would have been wearing in the early 1970's. So far I have the 68 pattern jacket; trousers and hood, crap hat, smock liner, cold weather trousers, puttees, socks, pullover, shirt, 58 pattern belt etc..
The two items I am missing are lightweights and DMS boots. I am keen to get items authentic for the period so can anyone who has an example of the correct lightweights/boots please post a picture of the label/markings on them and I will know what to look for...
I think the correct lightweights are post 'trousers overall green' but pre lightweights with only NATO sizing on them.
Any help/advice much appreciated!
