Such handsome men! ::swoons and bonks her head on the keyboard::

Seriously guys, the effort you put into your garb speaks volumes of your love of re-enactment and history. Makes a thrift-store pyrate like myself green with envy. :)

It is so cool to see all of these great pictures! We be a dashing, dastardly, delightful crewe of pirates! Cheers to all!

I wonder if one of the most important steps on our journey is the one in which we throw away the map.

I have a good reason for keeping to one wench... because she has a Sharp's four barrel pocket pistol, and she knows how to use it!

John, I love Mrs Blackjohn's outfit, looks superb! Between the gun, the boots and the look in her eyes I don't think I'd mess about either! It shames me to say that the current "Mrs" Foxe isn't in my picture...

Anyway, if we're going out of period I've always rather liked this one

OFF TOPIC RESPONSE!

Yeah, it is RAF, they wore blue and khaki uniforms depending on circumstances and personal preference. Dress uniform was always blue but "HD overalls" (what the army called "battledress") could be in either blue or in army khaki. When modified with items of civilian wear (like poloneck jumpers - very popular amongst pilots) the RAF looked scruffy as hell.

I have been considering setting up a re-enactment unit of "Popski's Private Army" - like the LRDG but they operated mostly in Italy.
