That it such a ridiculously tight coat. I'd love to see someone come out ot an event with something like that on.

I just wonder if the two with the howitzer didn't trade coats and caps to make a humorous photo? The guy on the left is of a smaller build and his cap and coat look like they could easily fit the other guy. Vice Versa for the guy on the right.
Just an observation.

No No way soldiers would pull a prank like that would they?

Great observation.:D

Ok, settled it. I ordered a WW sack coat a size too big and I'll let the chips (or in this case sleeve and body lengths) fall where they may.

I mean for a galoot my size that's what would have happened (if they hadn't tried to squeeze me into a size 4 coat).

But if the sargent or officer rides my butt for it I'm blaming you guys.

Hallo!

You could have ordered a coat a size too small, and blamed a lack of trade for not having a larger one.

I get yelled at already for not being able to button the top button on the current one.

It's Sherman's War to have a martinet for an officer!:p
