Getting dressed in the great war. 1914-1918
The development of the British soldier throughout WW1.
We are WW1/WW2 British re-enactors who attend 1940s events around the country. We also do displays and re-enactments for the public.

Many of the 'first 100,000' (volunteers - Kitchener's Blues) trained in old dark blue uniforms until they were supplied the proper kit. I would recommend the book 'The First Hundred Thousand' by Ian Hay. First published 1917. Its pretty funny in places.

The blue uniforms were made of serge material. Later a large number of them were shipped to Germany as clothing for British POWs.

Would irish and ulster regiments be issued the same things? I know they had the different cap badges but I mean in terms of uniform and kit.

Hello! We use a range of reproduction items and original kit. For example our webbing is from What Price Glory, an online site, the weaponry and smaller items are original pieces.

What would I need to buy to pull off the volunteer reserves uniform? I have a cap, Webley revolver non- firing replica and a trench whistle. Can I use any of these and what else do I need and where can I get it from that isn't too expensive?
