i guess im randomly asking but does anybody know of a trick to get back into an instagram account?? I was stupid lost the password. I love any tips you can offer me.
M43 E-tools are totally accurate for Tinian, Peleliu and Saipan in 1944 and for Iwo and Okinawa in 1945. They earliest I've seen them used was on Tinian by the 20th Marine Engineers. So you're good bro. Excellent setup. Wish I could buy that bayonet from you.
I bought the p41 set from smwholesale too, they made the uniforms for the pacific tv series so all the uniforms they have marked in that section are extra ones that are left over from that
Great video, thanks for showing us your kit. Couple things I would suggest for your kit. If you don’t already know, there are a couple differences between the USMC P44 cover and NAM ones. Main thing is the NAM ones are stitched along the top to give the cover the “crisp” look. For 25-30 bucks I would recommend getting the correct repro P44 cap. It will only enhance your impression. From your pack video your question about the proper E-tool on the back of the pack. There is photographic evidence of Marines carrying everything from axes and shovels to jungle first aid pouches and canteens on the back of the pack. I have even seen folding shovels in t-handle carriers on Marines packs. An axe with an M1 rifle impression is more than expectable. Keep up the great work!
I’d like to add something to this ^ The marines didn’t get their P44 caps until around early 1945. Throughout the war, it’s much more common to see army HBT caps being used by marines, sometimes with EGAs attached to the front.
I know I am SUPER late to this but for anyone reading m1943 shovels were certainly used with the cover, along with photographic and video evidence I have one that is unis marked by the 4th marine division in '45. m1910 shovel covers are crazy expensive m43s are a great choice, I honestly like them a fair amount more
Eastman Leather is a company that make top quality accurate repro USN white T Shirts and the later USMC green T Shirt. From what I've read and seen (only in photos) the colours of both are supposedly pretty close. Really glad I found your channel. I'm in Australia and it's taken me quite a few years but I've managed to put together both WW2 and Vietnam USMC collections I'm proud of. My WW2 gear is all reproduction though. Finding original gear in Australia is near impossible. Vietnam era stuff isn't too bad as the Australian Army used a lot of American styled webbing etc. Anyhow, love this channel and your collection!!!
That's not a Kabar. This knife was an alternate to the KABAR, usually bought by servicemen who wanted a knife, but weren't issued a KABAR. This particular knife style is made by a company called Cattaraugus and the Model is 225q. Marines also procured knives from the navy, that came in a plastic sheath. The Navy KABAR is called the MK2. There's also a shorter version of the Navy issue KABAR called the MK1. Then of course, they also carried theater made knives, some of which have some very fancy handles made from salvaged aircraft aluminum and plastic.
I’d suggest adding slits to your helmet covers. Although heavily debated, helmet covers with full slits are the earlier and most common pattern of helmet cover in WWII.
Great and very informative video! ~ I want to build up a USMC kit about the Guadalcanal campaign, but I have a hard time finding a good and trustworthy shop to order my stuff, I hope someone can help me out and name a few shops which are good and trustworthy. (I’m from Europe, if the information about my location is important).
Excellent video and impression. Any tips on where to find a 16 inch bayonet for a decent price? You said you got yours for fairly cheap in the video. That's literally all I need that is left for my impression. Really need an OG one.
Both of your canteens are ww2 the dog flap is older. Okinawa wasn’t cold it it was just very muddy and rainy that’s why you see them with cold and wet weather gear
Your M43 shovel cover is totally fine for 1945, OD7 stuff started being seen in 1944, and by 45 OD7 M43s covers were pretty much the majority of M43s covers. If you were using a T handle then it would be OD3
Pepsi boi no problem, good thing with both iwo and okinawa, lots of footage and pictures exist. There are countless documentaries and interviews on youtube that have cool footage. Youll see them frequently in footage
The potential for a great production; however try to stop saying “you know” and “like” inappropriately. I would suggest you write a script and re-edit as needed.
Some dudes mowing nis lawn with like a frickin plane. That got me cracking bro
I know that made me laugh a lot

For the helmet cover both sides are frog skin. One was beach side and one was jungle side. It was a reversible pattern.

Yup, it’scalled officially 782 gear. For those of us who have been in the Corps, we called it Duce Gear.

The knife is called a “Ka-Bar” (KAY-BAR)
not all ww2 patterned marine knives were made by union cutlery and only UC's were KABARS, others usually were called by their maker names
