Authenticity standards

Come in Kickoff, over,

Just FYI, the 502 radio call sign was "Kickoff".

We have received a number of very positive comments on our impression form others in the WWII reenactment community. As a follow on to these comments and to refine our impression I have on order and picked up several books on the 101st during Market Garden and later. There are quite a number of excellent original period photographs showing 101st and 502nd combat gear/uniforms. The material needs to be reviewed for us to be able to set correct authenticity standards for our unit. Any of you who would like to get together one evening, weekend, etc. to review the material please let me know and we can schedule a time. After review we can update our uniform/equipment requirements list.
