I will be delighted to post some pictures of the march if anyone is interested. Also, I have some pictures to post up on the Comitatus website of our last event - with artillery and Late Roman cavalry. We were attacked by cavalry for 2 days and there were some minor injuries ... :roll: But it looked fantastic and gave an excellent 'feel' of what it must have ben like to be attacked by cavalry...
Should be up on the Events page sometime this week.
LRRPS are my old friends the US Army Long range reconnaissance patrols, going out using stealth to gather tactical intelligence for the division.

Looks very good, Martin!
The colours of the fabrics are very good, these "near to earth" brown & white have a very authentic feel to them. What is the next item you are looking for? A scutum, a pilum perhaps?
Btw, I am waiting for my new Deepeeka gallic H helmet to arrive. I will definitely try to "narrow" it. I will remove the cheekpieces (easily done by removing the pins inside the hinges) and the brow guard. First I will bend the hinges of the cheekpieces more outward so they will come more near to my face. Then I will "squash" the bowl of the helmet to make it more narrow. It really made a difference with my late gallic H :wink: ...
