This made me smile, I remember a ds explaining in words I wouldn’t repeat to my mother that there’s a tap washer in every issue so fit it stop dripping & make it work or he would with a size 9. Point taken😂 he added trust me just like yer mum the last thing y’want is a small one! So miss the squaddie dark humour lol😂😂

Maybe inhouse gag by troops to see who could wear the most outrageous smock 😂

Generous cut austrian m65 army jackets are so for layering cold weather

Informative. Nice to see a Canadian smock at 10 min mark.

This explains so much. I have an original hand painted size 7 and it's huge on my 44", 6' frame.

Even the 1959 pattern was generous! I should wear a size 3 or even a 6 but I can wear a size 1 comfortably!

Very Interesting video. Nice to see that reproductions are available as - during the "Dark Ages" of the 1980s- re-enactors had to source postwar Denison smocks. FWIW-I'm 6'3" with a 42 inch chest and have tried wearing a 1st pattern June1943 size No 7 marked for up to 6'2 and 39 to 41 breast size. Smock sleeve length is long enough-and smock fit well even though I normally wear tall size civilian clothes. However, at the time, I did not have access to original kit in order to determine fit while wearing the complete web kit underneath.

Do you think there mite be a pissabolaty that in the Photo that the the long and the short and the tall took might just mite be poking fun at the QM I mean I would never do such a thing when I was in ........ much . I have also seen photos in 1Para Guardroom and Sargents mess of Paras weighting to boad the plains Gliders pree overlord with what can only be described as a well endowed Marilyn Monrow set of chesticals when asked I was to with a slight grin from the Prov Sargent that the smocks had two inner chest pockets that got nicked name the Brazier for there irresistible formation made by troops stuffing extra food rations and boxed ammo in the to form such outstanding physique I replied with a slightly smug smile yes indeed very alluring I decided to leave the proximity of said Provo Sargent and his place of residence before he invited me to stay a while and enjoy the amenities that he and his stout fellows could provide me
