I now have a RAF Uniform, pay for it on thursday/friday only costing me about £16 quid off of Ebay, Its a fairly modern one and I wanted a 1945 style one but I'll happily take it. Got my eye on some other things too just need to see how it goes, all I will need is somewhere to wear it and be David Niven like.

You could always wear it to purgatory. If you do please wait until january as I won't be there December and wouldn't want to miss it.  Harmony | |

Almost the very words that my Dad heard when he was a signalman in Malta: "This is it chaps...looks like i've bought it"...can you imagine such bravery ? The Spitfire went down and the man died without a medal. Chaps ? sounds a bit corny and laughable doesn't it..... My Dad's 87 now and he cries when he recalls such memories...the Ohio limping into the harbour barely afloat with the half burned bodies of sailors who gave their all for our freedom and our England. Jingoism ? Political Correctness ? Middle England ? i feel that there are far too many medals owed and not bestowed and that they are tarnished by a drugged up "multi racial society" that doesn't appreciate the freedoms that allow us our thrills. oh yes...WW II clothes may turn us on...i love to wear them....Eek ! Stockings ...garter belts....love 'em !!! But don't forget those who had the right to wear them first, the ones who died for us.

I'll be honest i may be scottish, but you can ask anyone
who knows me i always call myself brittish rather than
scottish, your description i can beleive and while i do a
good imitation accent I know exactly how brave those people
where, I think it was something about the time. And cheesy as it sounds the brittish stiff upper lip we can handle anything and just get on with life because well thats what we do attitude has always inspired me and made me proud to be brittish.
I will leave it with this during the bombing on london I logged on one morning to people with wap asking why the tube had stopped, and someone saying "theres been a bombing" and the poster going "shit, i am going to miss my hairdressers appointment!" that made me laugh and proud at the same time anyway I am drunk and its late

Met a lot of the "Few" in my younger days and they did not see themselves as brave. Their general opinion was that they were doing what had to be done. The ones I met were in for the ump
teenth lot of remedial surgery
The shatterring of their faces and lives is something some are still living with. But they did not mind the uniform being worn in "fun". Gawd you should have seen some of their carryings on while still in lots of painful dressings!
They would howl with laughter at some our antics- they are quite tame in the exhibitionst dept, compared to theirs. And I am not talking 1945, I am talking 1980.
Only Caveat I would make is TAKE OFF the medal ribbons and give them to a museum. Those you are not entitled to at all.
In your case ...invent a medal for Most green Beer Drunk. Most spanks taken in the field ect.....
and DO NOT GET YOUR HAIR CUT!!!

tbh I don't think i have seen one that actually comes with those tbh. Well a lot of people who are brave don't often think of themselves in that way, that however doesn't change
the fact that they are I might do that I am sure i could come up with one or two of my own :p *never* getting my hair cut.
