Training Day, England. Sunday Jan. 20th 2008.

I'm hoping the uniform is cotton (although this time of year wool wouldnt be too bad) The Civil War guys have the wool uniforms, and there is nothing like watching them topple over in the 100 degree weather in Virginia in the summer. And you cant just throw them in the washer when you get home.

My father had his WWII issue coat when I was a kid and he used to wear that in the yard until it fell apart. I remember that being a very heavy cotton material.

Enjoy seeing the pics. Keep sending them,

 

On behalf of all the guys thanks Darlene
