Another surprise package arrives from our friends at Prop Store! This time, it's a pair of screen-used World War II solider uniforms from the HBO show The Pacific. Adam and Norm examine the costumes and discuss the ways they're weathered and distressed to simulate combat wear and tear for filming. And of course, we can't resist trying the costumes on!

    If I may brag for just a second..... I once got to wear a very similar dress outfit, in an episode of The History Channels "Air Aces" I landed a role in... Going through the costume truck with the dressers was actually more fun than shooting the scene.... And shooting the scene was VERY fun... getting to improvise my own lines allowed me to sneak in a favourite quote, "Harry, you old seven times a son-of-a-gun!" A good costume can often improve, even the best performance. Cheers!

    Its kind of a shit uniform to be honest. The uniform wouldve been seen on guadalcanal. The dress shirt was seen at the same time the P41 was seen. After guadalcanal men were wearing the P41 or P42 uniforms. The shirt was no longer being used in the field. The uniform is okay historically but the gear makes it look like shit. They gave him mid to late war gear with an early war uniform. Had they given him a P41 jacket it would be much better.

    These uniforms are great. So that got me wondering. So after a bit of searching the interwebs and looking thru a buttload of WWII books I have, I think I figgered' it out. Adam is wearing a US Marine Summer Service Uniform. Worn by enlisted men and officers alike. The only variations were Lapel pins to designate an officers rank or arm patches for enlisted and noncoms. Khakis were authorized as the working uniform, (sorry Adam not a dress uniform) and also for leave and liberty. I have a few pics of officers wearing combat ribbons. I have also seen pic wearing Parachute Badge, but it's not an area II've looked at before. Norm is wearing a combination; summer service shirt with dungaree trousers. A cooler (wearing ) variation of the utility uniform which was made of heavy sage green cotton herringbone twill. Head gear available for Adam would be a "barracks cover" ( the flat topped dressy cover) or the "garrison cap" (also called the "pisscutter."). Suspenders and a rifle cartridge belt. I'm thrown however by the canteen. The Cover is a cross flap type, but I'm not sure of the canteen itself. My screenshot shows a metal cap. All the pictures I have and the canteens I see online have a black plastic cap. The same type I was issued in the US Army in 1975. IDK. Leather Field shoes and leggings, nice. Adam's SSU Would wear a pair of brown Cordovan Service Shoes. The "backpack" looks like a post Okinawa type Haversack. Although it could be an Officer's Canvas Field Bag. Prior to Okinawa these were mustard colored, but the USMC did use up the older (mustard colored) gear well into Korea. This is nice stuff. I'm jealous.

    If I'm not mistaken the canteen is a replica of the early issue types before they had the plastic (probably "bakelite") caps. Strangely enough after WWII these were made with the metal caps in.. Japan! As a kid in the mid 70's my dad took me to a surplus store that had a big batch of WWII items still in stock. I had an M1 helmet and liner, web belt, canteen, etc. Wish I still had that stuff...

    TheMichaelJ Show the canteen cover is known as a “dog-eared” cover and is specific to the Marines in WWII. The pack is the P1941 Haversack, used only by the Marines and was introduced mid war to replace the M1928 Haversack that both them and the Army were using at the time. Attached is the M1910 E-Tool (shovel) with its cover, and what looks like either a shelter half or bedroll, or both. The cartridge belt is an M1923. The M1910 canteens vary and I can’t say which type it was because I couldn’t get a good look. The suspenders I believe are an early M1936 type but I could be mistaken on that.

    When did these videos go from "Adam shows us how to _make_ something" to "Adam show off some expensive props that he can afford"...? I realise Tested needs to release videos to make money, but this is just twisting all the reasons that made it (and Adam's videos, specifically) successful in the first place. I mean, there's nothing wrong with showing other people's work, but either show those people doing the work, or at least show Adam reproducing some of the techniques.

    ***** I don't have "a problem", either. No one forces me to watch them, and both Adam and the Tested guys are obviously free to do whatever they want. But I'd much rather see Adam actually _making_ stuff (or demonstrating some techniques). And these "showoff" videos seem to have been gradually _replacing_ those other ones. _Anyone_ with a decent bank account can buy movie props and show them off. Having access to Adam and just doing that (instead of showing the things he can _do_, and the skills that make him different from other people) is a waste.

    While I could write a book of jokes, japes, and jabs regarding Tested's producing some of the most unabashedly First World content I've ever seen, I don't mind watching Adam (or Will, or Norm) show off his new toys. That's kind of what Tested is all about: a bunch of enthusiasts being enthusiastic about the things that enthuse them. The guys at Tested are into DIY projects, but that's just one thing on their list of interests. As someone with a list of hobbies that includes astrophotography, 3D printing, aviation, consumer tech, CAD, PC gaming, inventing, and piano, I can totally understand why Tested chooses not to specialize in any one thing-- it's simply irresponsible to ignore all of the awesome stuff in our world. One last thing to bear in mind: if a project is worth the cost/effort of producing a series of videos, it has to be big, complex, and interesting. As we all know, however, those ambitious DIY builds are the ones we never have enough time or energy to start.

    It really wasn't as good no, but I think they're also entirely different. The Pacific was very clearly about the mental effects of war on its soldiers and as such was a much more difficult show to 'enjoy', even showing some of the american soldiers being pretty awful too. Whereas BoB was obviously a more 'heroic' stance on the allies efforts in more well known part of the war. They were two very different conflicts, so the shows did feel a lot different from one another. Rewatching The Pacific made me understand it a lot more and appreciate it, but again I really don't enjoy it anywhere near as much as BoB.

    caper2x It looks like it can be situation dependent thing, (similar to how you have different uniforms for different Climates) but from what I have read up on (please correct me if I am wrong!). It looks like it could have been that combat boots were widely used in Vietnam. It would make sense, since trudging in deep mud would totally negate the use of gaiters. As I said someone correct me if im wrong. :)

    The "leggings " are called "puttees". Well in the British army anyway. A puttee, also spelled puttie, is the name, adapted from the Hindi patti, bandage for a covering for the lower part of the leg from the ankle to the knee. I think the yanks may call them "gaitors".

    +Gribbo9999 They are leggings. The Puttees are wrap on versions used by the Japanese in WWII and most countries during WWI. The Gaitors are used by the German and Commonwealth forces and they are smaller and less hard to put on (Trust me I have experience with Puttees, Gaitors and Leggings.) Leggings are hard and were used by leggings during WWII, WWI and Korea.

Americans used Puttees in WW1 but Gaitors/leggins were designed so the boot length could be cut down to save on leather. I have a few originals in the boxes of junk we pull out of the tanks at my job when we restore them.

    Gribbo9999 leggings are more akin to spats, he is wearing leggings. Putties are a leg wrap and wool in the context of WWI. and not what is shown. The US military only used putties in WWI, and that was after ditching leggings. The British military also didn’t wear putties in WWII, they wore gaiters, just like the Germans later in the war. Source: I have a pair of and have worn both.

It has been estimated that between 12,000 and 20,000 Chinese American men, representing up to 22 percent of the men in their portion of the U.S. population, served during World War II. Approximately 142,000 Filipinos served during World War II.

    I know it's too late to win that book as I am a Star Wars fan, but the prop uniforms are pretty cool. I served 5 years in the Marines and my grandfather fought in WWII out in the Pacific in the Army. He was in the Philippines, New Guinea, and went into Hiroshima a few days after the bomb was dropped on it. He has pictures of himself in the leveled town surrounded by several children that survived the blast. They rescued the survivors and gave them medical treatment. The whole time no one knew about the radiation but he saw scientist in white suits going around doing test and no one knew why they were doing that until later. He eventually suffered from skin cancer that was treated but he passed away in his early 90's from Alzheimer's disease.
