Civies to Monty's Men: WW2 British Large Pak - 1908 Valise
This time we'll be looking at the 1908 Valise and what's inside... As part of the Monty's Men adventure I've teamed up with Jake from the Jake Brown Collection. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCciD... This series of videos will follow us through our preparations for next year's Monty's Men Trip which is considered the top in WW2 reenacting. We'll be covering preparations and getting our kit up to the exceptionally high standards required Monty’s Men is a collective of individual living historians who are usually members of other groups. The group, albeit without a name, existed in 2002 but the first Monty’s Men ‘branded’ trip was in 2003 as a platoon of the 9th Battalion, Durham Light Infantry. The ethos behind the Monty’s Men group is a fully immersive living history experience and, wherever possible, not compromising on accuracy. As such, the men were fed from compo rations to the same menus as the 1944 British infantrymen and there were little modern conveniences other than where modern safety standards required it.
