I used to help a dealer near Hershey PA. The Camo was an old civilian hunting shirt. The wool and HBT were wasted old uniform pants and shirts that were basically trash he gave me. The Navy blue is a foam backing from the Riker mount Co. He also gave me part of a Mitchell pattern Shelter half someone cut up. I used that for some Viet Nam displays. I still have some of it left although when I last moved some things were misplaced. That was one of them.

 

For the most part I use era uniforms that have holes or are torn beyond any valuable use. Someone recently told me that they use army blankets for backgrounds. They are reasonably cheap and there are still many out there. One blanket could cover a lot of Rikers. I'm not sure I could cutup a good blanket though It would have to be in bad shape for me to do that.
