schmitty4ws1 Posted August 12, 2013 Share #793 Posted August 12, 2013 Hello everyone! Here is my 5307th Composite Unit (Merril's Maruaders) impression. I know I'm to clean to be a soldier in the mountains of Burma but ill work on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redjoshman Posted August 13, 2013 Share #794 Posted August 13, 2013 BARman,Love your impressions, the only thing I'd change is getting rid of the blanket for your D-Day Impression. I haven't seen those carried in photographs and film of the regiment on D-Day(most probably since they were in the bed rolls they were ordered to make). They get those bedrolls and start carrying blankets again I think around D-Day +1/D-Day +2. Also most photographs and film show the 1st ID guys wearing their life preservers under the Assault Jacket and held up with twine suspenders. However you'll occasionally see them over the vests so it isn't a big deal.schmitty4ws1,Do you have a picture of your pack? I'm curious if you packed it according to Merril's Official Packing list? If you don't have it I'll try to get it to you.-Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be interested in that packing list though... -Kyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redjoshman Posted August 13, 2013 Share #796 Posted August 13, 2013 Kyle,I'll get you the packing list. They were to carry a ton of stuff(makes sense considering the mission). Though that pack is packed well enough for most impressions, looking at the packing list and at original photos it should be packed a little heavier.Like I said I'll try to get you the packing list tomorrow.-Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would being young ruin your impression? The men we portray were 18-into their 20's. As far as your impression, I think it looks good! I'm no expert on WWI US but if I'm not mistaken patches weren't sewn on until post-war. Otherwise, everything else looks very good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
