				 Where??????? 
 
			
			Do we have a link of the movie or which pay channel......??
 Is it even  available  across the pond??
 
 I promise not to criticize ........   but what would be the reaction of Joe Pubic (not a typo) if we showed up in real period uniform, gritty, unshaven, miss matched color of kits and wearing a sentry woolen cap or better still a a beret stuck to the back of our heads with flowing curls sticking out on our forehead....
 
 I love seeing un-staged pictures of real front line situation that shows real courage and stamina.
 
 Always gets me to see a modern clean re-enactment campsite with a soldier in clean army woolen uniform, 6 foot two and just a shade below 300 pounds wearing a steel pot in size 6 1/2 with a scraggly hair cut.
 
 I attended a show for Veterans and some one pointed out to me that my loose fitting clean (as in mint) coverall were certainly not what I wear when servicing my truck........  and she was absolutely right!!!!
 
 Guess what I will be wearing next time.....
 
 Back in the my days of dirt bikes and mud in the back trails of the Gatineau Park ( now all out of bounds) we wore jeans and matching jacket......  it took a lot of convincing of my (first) wife BUT  they were to she shaken loose of dirt and grease and oil was patina....... NEVER TO BE WASHED..... or risk being called a mommy's boy by the other guys!!!!
 
 Now everything gets washed after one wearing......and they do not last!!!
