    America’s military contribution to WWI was minimal, to the point of being inconsequential. Of far greater impact was American finance because Britain and France would have run out of money by 1917 if it wasn’t for American loans.

    Outstanding video. Everyone wants to do the 82nd and 101st re-enactments. Have you ever thought about doing a re-enactment of the 221st Airborne Medical Company from the 11th Airborne Division in the Pacific. One of the few Airborne units to have enemy Airborne dropped on their hospital position. The 11th AB also has a history equal to the 101st. One of their most notable was the Los Banos Raid saving a large number of civilian POWs. It didn't make the papers because a Marine flag raising was on the front page. The movie "The Raid" was about the Rangers saving military POWs and the Los Banos raid was almost a duplicate only saving civilians. The medics played an important part in helping the civilians recover from the Japanese neglect.

    @@DapperDoughboy Good plan, I can't wait to see how it turns out. I'm not sure whether to be worried about the sleeves catching the string or not, having had that happen to me with a t-shirt in heavy wind before. Mail shouldn't catch the wind like fabric, though, so maybe it won't be a problem even if the sleeve is fairly loose.

    This kind of boot was designed to be "dubbed" meaning a type of waterproofing grease is spread into it. This causes it to become darker, but it also makes it last longer.

    You have just restored my faith in re-enacting a medic. So far almost every single medic I have ever seen has been... well frankly put... f'in awful. However this is really good. Because of my known hatred of medic re-enactors one of the guys in my unit asked me to review your video. I did, and was so pleasantly surprised. Great job! Only two things I would improve on. 1. please loose the parachute scarf. Its just so over done and ruins your impression and makes you look like one of 'those guys' and not someone who actually has a fantastic impression. 2. Your piping on the garrison cap should be light blue for infantry. Your in an infantry unit, medics in infantry units are still infantry. If you were from a medical unit, like 326th Abn Medical Company attached to the 101st, then you'd wear medical piping. If your a medic from the 101st, then you'd wear infantry piping. I only used 101st units to explain as I know FA about the real specifics of the 82nd. Great video, great impression, you have restored my faith!
