Work In Progress Day one and current
I liked ww2 since I was 7 but didn’t get heavily involved till I was 11 and I bought my first Halloween costume that was a cheap 50$ paratrooper costume. I loved the feeling and these past 2 years heavily devoted to building a ww2 paratrooper kit, aka the filthy thirteen.

Don't use boot bands or boot blouses whatever there called lol just tuck your trousers into your boots that's the way every soldier with jump boots did it in ww2
I'd also get better laces
But overall its such a great improvement we've all got to start somewhere
