Is the last one gotta be a joke, right? Especially the caption…
What do you reckon?
Joke or not, the last photo is clearly at the start of the fight as the treed helmets definitely lack style.
I have misgivings about the intentions of the man behind (who may be a sergeant judging from the apparent chevrons on his right arm) who is tenderly touching his companion while looking at him somewhat fiercely with his pistol drawn. I sense tears before bedtime here. 
It’s a change parade (as a means of collective punishment). You get formed up outside, and given say two minutes to get changed into a different order of dress. This could be anything from Mess Tin Order (wearing nothing but belts and mess tins) to full CBRN suits/respirators, by way of say Ninja Turtles (green long johns and long-sleeve T-shirt with sleeping bag wrapped around torso). How many changes you get depends on how pissed off they are with you.
I recon they ran out of Christmas trees…
Style? in the British Army? Now thats a whole new thread. Since the British army dumped the old WW2 era battledress the British squaddie has done his upmost to look as ‘ally’ as possible customising his kit and appearance in every concievable way without incurring the wrath of the RSM. The two gentlemen in the photo were obviously well ahead of their time.
True, but no site has enough bandwidth to deal with that.
I wore the old battledress, which could have been designed to have fewer internal buttons and not need braces.
You ought to see the average Aussie digger in their loose camos and ‘natural’ boots now. :neutral:
I thought it might just be me, but a few days ago I asked the bloke who was the adjutant of my regiment nearly 40 years ago if he felt that soldiers in the current camos looked like slovenly crap compared with our starched and ironed jungle greens and, and this may surprise you, he said yes.
The two gentlemen in the photo were obviously well ahead of their time.
The bloke in the rear strikes me as being well behind his time, and a gentleman who might be preoccupied with being behind, and having a preoccupation with using his pistol from behind. Naturally I assume that they were from a Household Cavalry unit.
Well, while I have to say that the German army, too, does it’s best at looking as ‘American’ as possible, at least they still kept their own design for the field hats. I love the look of those, and who knows, maybe they’ll start designing their own shit again some time soon…
Historically, I like the German military design better than the French or English one (Go figure…), with the exception of the WW1 field hat. That one looked horrible for the German army, but the British ones look pretty cool…
The German occupation of Holland.
Left picture says : Thats the way they came
Right picture says : Thats the way they left
You ought to see the entire British field army now! I can think of at least 4 different shapes to mould your beret into, several ways of wearing your smock etc… Honestly the mind boggles.
Oh yes, and they were singing:" In der Heimat da gibs kein Fressen mehr" while carying their stolen loot home!
^Can have nao?
^All together now!
Hm… somehow I really think these Hand-Sign jokes are too forced…
Pretty much and my latest “Herman Arts” (Thank You Churchill for the picture you provided)
I smell a meme.
I’m wondering if Rifleman realizes that he’s actually making fun of the person pictured in herman’s avatar with this, not herman himself…
Hahaha, glad to see the pictures being put to good use… 
Thank you guys and yes Schuultz, I feel more bad for the guy that used to hold the gun, now he looks hideous, but I will do any pictures just find one and I will waste my time on it
