Captain Barry Hill
Lancashire Fusiliers

Our CGI uniform model "Barry" is wearing the standard khaki British officer's uniform and cap with wool tie.
His decorations bar displays the award of two Military Medals for Bravery in the Field, the second denoted by clasp, and the cloth vertical strip on his left forearm is a wound badge.

From his well worn Sam Browne belt hangs a holster with a .38 caliber Mark 4 Webley pistol, complete with lanyard. As an officer gentleman of the British Empire, he also holds the almost mandatory brown leather riding crop.

Jolly good 'ol chap! Don't lie there n' let Jerry shoot at you...

I see that you included the most important accessory for an British officer, the riding crop...

[Jim O]

Great stuff cyberia. I like Barry with the mustache.

Captain Barry Hill
British Parachute Regiment

Our CGI uniform model, "Barry" is this time in the uniform of a British Parachute commando. In combat, British paratroops wore a special steel helmet.
Usually, as shown here, it was covered with 3/8-inch netting onto which were tied bits of camouflage-colored fabric in order to break up its silhouette and blend in with surrounding foliage.
This captain's khaki webbing bandoleer holds five spare 32-round 9-mm magazines for his MK III Sten sub machine gun.
The heavy rope tied round his torso and shoulders is called a toggle rope.
With a wooden handle at one end and a sturdy loop at the other, these 6- to 8-foot ropes were used by paratroops and commandos to quickly construct ad-hoc bridges and other rigs, such as for climbing and descending steep terrain. His darkened face makes him harder to see in dim light. The substance used may be a grease paint specifically designed for the purpose, or carbon soot from a charred cork, or even standard boot polish.

Haha "Well it's this camoflouage sir. It's al well and fine in the country, but I don't think it'll do us any good here!"
