Not sure about the black holster, but great start, IMO. I hope to join the ranks of the airborne next year. By the way, what Division are you impersonating?

Hi im targeting the 82nd impression so that i can wear my u.s. flag. Some expert says in the internet that 101 airborne did not wear the u.s. flag in normandy not until operation market garden. Is this true?

No black holster and 101AB did not wear the US flag during normandy. Remember the AB forces wore AB helmet liners called M1C which differ from the M1 helmets. Great start for your impression.

Nice, nice...especially the tommy gun. I'm starting an Airborne impression myself. I hope to finish mine in 6 months.
