    Look forwards to seeing/reading the guide.

    Not sure when I'll be doing this but it seems unlikely to be in the immediate future. It depends on when I have everything ready, which is beyond my control.

    Edward53 wrote:Cheers Gary, I like it for the same reason as you do, and I agree that use by a sniper would make sense if the elbows were padded out. I like both unissued and used items, they appeal in different ways. This jacket was £2 and it's probably not worth any more in purely financial terms, but I was really pleased to find it.

    I will take pics of some more ddpm and other items, but bear with me a bit longer, as there are still a couple of pieces I want but don't have examples of. Then, once I'm ready, I mean to start a Gulf War One kit identification thread based on patterns and labelling. I don't claim to be an expert, but I'm faily confident I have picked up enough knowledge to provide a basic guide, and unless someone beats me to it, that will be the only resource on the Internet (or anywhere else that I know of) explaining how to recognise and date this kit.

    No worries,great to see the more unusual bits of GW kit,and especially for £2.00 which is an excellent price to pay..brilliant!

    There definitely needs to be some sort of definitive thread on these item's,so when you create it it will be very exciting to read and view,regards Gary.
